This summer, we've had the opportunity to book shows at a number of venues in which we have never played. I'm always excited to play a show at a new venue as it gives us an opportunity to introduce Concrete Prophet to a brand new audience while introducing that venue to the wonderful folks that come out to support us at every show. We've had the opportunity to meet some wonderful people along the way and I look forward to meeting more at every new stop. Each venue offers it's own benefits and challenges, and whether we're playing at Orion Studios to a prog-minded audience and feeding off of the positive energy, or performing with a showcase of varied bands and defining against adversity what Concrete Prophet is, every show turns in to an exciting experience.

Every radio station says, "it's all about the music," but I'm skeptical. More and more radio stations have an ever-shrinking variety of songs and I feel the homogeneity of local radio is ultimately leaving listeners unsatisfied. This is the exact reason Concrete Prophet feels it's important to pursue Internet radio. Let's not be coy -- we're a progressive metal band. That description alone is almost as 'non-commercial' as they come. But that doesn't matter. We're excited about a resource where we can share our music with people who appreciate it. Will Concrete Prophet ever be heard on your local radio station? Maybe. Maybe not. And that's fine with us. We're thankful to all the stations who now feature Concrete Prophet (check our website for the growing list), but, more importantly, we're thankful that they took the initiative to create an outlet for a genre of compelling music that otherwise would not get the airtime and attention it deserves.

One very important thing every professional artist should do is to obtain an official Trademark from the USPTO. Make sure to secure your rights within the legal system if you choose to pursue a career in music. We are now officially doing business as Concrete Prophet.

"The audience cannot help but be left in anticipation of what will happen next. And during each song, the band provides plenty to feast on with incendiary playing, jaw dropping timing, and originality that brings music up to a higher level. Concrete Prophet has personality, musicality, and they know who they are. You guys are truly a national / international quality act."

"I received your CD yesterday and I really like it. You guys did a GREAT job, it left me wanting more! Your front man's voice sounds very much like Tommy Shaw, I should know, been listening to Tommy since the late 70's. I hope you guys get busy and churn out a full length release. The world is ready if you are. My best regards to you and the band, keep moving forward. Good luck and I hope you sell a million copies!" Read Reagan's EP review on CD Baby

"Prog HELLO to Concrete Prophet. WOW – LOVE THE CRUNCH on Mona Lisa. I downloaded your songs and will add the three to my stream. You guys PROX! Awesome work and more importantly you pass my seal of approval for my stream. I just ordered your CD from CD Baby. What is in the future for CP? Keep me informed and up-to-date with the tunes. Prog regards."

All of us in Concrete Prophet are consummate fans of music ourselves. One of our biggest goals is to bring music to the stage that appeals to the music fan. Personally, it gives me a great deal of pleasure and a tremendous sense of accomplishment when a fellow musician or fan of music in general offers us congratulations or compliments. Lets us know we're doing something right! So keep the comments comin'! Come up to us at the shows and tell us what you think. We're always happy to hear and offer our personal thanks!
