Crayon Phase

about

CRAYON PHASE is a progressive rock band from Germany and was formed in 2008 by Frank Wendel (vocals, keys), followed by Wolfgang Bähr (guitar, bass) , Arne Gröschel (drums) and Frank Brommer (keys). Peter Damm (bass) joined in 2012 after the recording of their debut album “Within my recollection”, which was released in 2013. Frank Brommer left the band in 2015 and Frank Wendel focused on keys only when they started to write the songs for their next album … Each song of the 2019 concept album “Two hundred pages” reflects the spirit of the individual chapters and takes you through the story with atmospheres changing from dark to epic, from catchy to deep, from mystic to aggressive, but still stays tight and cohesive as one piece of music. The band developed towards a more energetic progressive rock sound, with their own blend of Neo Prog, New Art Rock and Melodic Prog Metal by utilizing the experience the members gained over the years in a number of different projects. The search for a new vocalist took a lot of time and without vocalist during the song writing phase the vocal lines and lyrics for the new songs had to be created by Wolfgang Bähr with some support from Frank Wendel. Finally the band found Raphael Gazal on vocals for the recording of the album, whose strong and variable voice supports the new songs and the musical development of the band very well. Unfortunately Raphael is not available to join as a long term band member and so the band is looking for a vocalis
