about
The Ring of Scribes is a Provo, Utah based rock band with a taste for the unusual. The group first formed in October 2005 when brothers Alex and Matt Morrise collaborated to produce the compilation "Revival," a collection of material the two had written separately over several years. After completing "Revival" in January 2006, the group began work on a two hour song-cycle based on the Harry Potter book series, which was eventually titled "Magic!" (or "Magic! a wrock opera" by its fans). The Ring of Scribes performed the entire cycle three times in early 2007, and it was subsequently recorded in May and June of 2007. "Magic!" was officially released on June 13, 2007. Immediately after the release of "Magic!" Alex left for Taiwan. The Ring of Scribes worked separately for two years, writing new material while pursuing other interests. Alex returned to the U.S. in July 2009, and the group reunited, playing a one-off show before beginning the work of recording a new album, tentatively called "The Sky/The Light." After spending significant time in the studio, the two brothers decided to expand their sound by adding more members to the band. At present, the group continues to rehearse with various musicians, refining the sound that will appear on the new album~ User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
