On October 5, 2018, Pymlico will release «Nightscape», their fifth studio album. Following the success of «Meeting Point» (2016), the Norwegian instrumentalists keep diving into their love of different styles. Although they still sort of fit the description «Progressive Rock meeting Fusion», the songs on «Nightscape» have a more traditional, song-based structure, taking inspiration from some of the great pop music of the 20th century. Also adding more cinematic textures to the songs gives this release another dimension. Combining modern production techniques with great musicianship and good songwriting has resulted in a record of high quality sound and strong melodic tracks. The compositions are varied in expression, but what they all have in common is focus on good melodic structures and rich arrangements. The sound is dense with detailed layers of keyboards and guitars.

In 2016, Pymlico was signed to the Norwegian label Apollon Records Prog with their fourth album «Meeting Point». «Nightscape» will be the band’s second released by the label and fifth in total. The album will be available on all platforms – vinyl, CD and digital.

Bio:
Pymlico was founded as a creative outlet for drummer and songwriter Arild Brøter in 2009. This led to three album releases: «Inspirations» (2011), «Directions» (2012) and «Guiding Light» (2014). The albums were made with a massive support of guest musicians, and they all received positive feedback and favorable reviews in the international progrock society. With a growing desire to perform the music live, Arild gathered a smaller band to do concerts – this eventually became the band Pymlico as we see today.
