Phideaux is now back with a new album and back on stage with his full band.<\/p>\n<p>This group of ten musicians is comprised of many childhood friends and comrades who have played on his more recent albums. Together, the band tackles a kaleidoscope of haunting vocals, multiple keyboards and upbeat, intricate, rock music.<\/p>\n<p>The new double album, <em>Infernal<\/em>, is the final and eagerly awaited chapter in Phideaux\u2019s trilogy, and a fitting finale to his carefully crafted \u201ceco terror tale\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Phideaux and his band have played several festivals since the release of Doomsday, including RoSfest (US), Summer\u2019s End (UK), Crescendo (France), Terra Incognita (Canada), and 3RP (US). Other recent album releases have included <em>Number Seven<\/em>and <em>Snowtorch<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>While widely considered progressive rock, Phideaux\u2019s music is difficult to categorize. It has been called cryptic, mysterious and frightening, as well as playful, melodic, and mischievous. Whether it\u2019s progressive, art or psychedelic rock, Phideaux consistently pushes musical boundaries and defies genre.<\/p>\n<p>Join Phideaux and his cohorts as they celebrate the cinematic sounds of the Doomsday Afternoon trilogy live in 2019.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_117\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-117\" style=\"width: 720px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-117\" src=\"http:\/\/www.progstock.com\/2019\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/RosF_11.jpg\" alt=\"Phideaux at RoSfest\" width=\"720\" height=\"480\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.progstock.com\/2019\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/RosF_11.jpg 720w, https:\/\/www.progstock.com\/2019\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/RosF_11-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.progstock.com\/2019\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/RosF_11-700x467.jpg 700w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 720px) 100vw, 720px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-117\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Phideaux at RoSfest<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><strong>Band Lineup:<\/strong><br \/>\nAriel Farber &#8211; Vocals, Violin<br \/>\nValerie Gracious &#8211; Lead Vocals, Piano<br \/>\n&#8220;Bloody&#8221; Rich Hutchins &#8211; Drums<br \/>\nMathew Kennedy &#8211; Bass Guitar<br \/>\nGabriel Moffat &#8211; Electric Guitar<br \/>\nMolly Ruttan &#8211; Vocals, Percussion<br \/>\nLinda Ruttan-Moldawsky &#8211; Vocals<br \/>\nMark Sherkus &#8211; Keyboards<br \/>\nJohnny Unicorn &#8211; Vocals, Keyboards, Saxophone<br \/>\nPhideaux Xavier &#8211; Lead Vocals, Piano, Acoustic Guitar<\/p>\n<p>Website:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/bloodfish.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">https:\/\/bloodfish.com<\/a><br \/>\nFacebook:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/PhideauxPage\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/PhideauxPage\/<\/a><br \/>\nTwitter:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/phideaux_xavier\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">https:\/\/twitter.com\/phideaux_xavier<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Phideaux Xavier is a progressive rock musician whose unique musical style gained the attention of the progressive rock community in the US and Europe upon the 2007 release of his Doomsday Afternoon\u00a0album, the second installment of a trilogy that began in 2006 with The Great Leap.
