About this event

First gig of acclaimed prog. band's spring tour

With music that is ‘as epic and as beautiful as it is possible to get’ (Scream Magazine), The Emerald Dawn are a multi-instrumentalist, symphonic progressive rock quartet, who combine elements from classical music, jazz and rock to produce their own original, distinctive and exciting sound—a sound that is cinematic, experimental and powerful.

Usually haunting, often stunningly melodic and always highly atmospheric, the music of The Emerald Dawn paints images or tells stories that stimulate the imagination and takes the listener on unforgettable musical journeys.

The band comprises Tree Stewart (keyboards, flute, acoustic guitar and vocals), Ally Carter (guitar, saxophones and vocals), David Greenway (fretless and fretted bass guitars) and Tom Jackson (drums).

For their second studio album, ‘Visions’, The Prog Mind ranked Stewart number 7 in the best keyboards performances of 2017 while ranking Carter number 6 in the best guitar performances.
In February 2019 The Emerald Dawn released their third studio album, ‘Nocturne’, to rave reviews:

‘…as wondrous as only a near-masterpiece can be.’ ***** Dmitry M. Epstein

This is a sheer delight to listen to, one of those albums that gets inside your soul and is one that you will keep with you for life. … I love this album.’ The Progressive Aspect

‘A wonderful must-have album, full of passion, drama, and majestic instrumentation throughout…’ ***** Progplanet

‘“Nocturne” displays musical prowess that will leave your heart in your throat’. The Prog Mind.
The Emerald Dawn will not only be performing compositions from their three studio albums but will also be providing a glimpse of some of their forthcoming album: ‘To Touch the Sky’.
