PAVLOV’S DOG with SPECIAL GUEST THE CYBERIAM

Founded in 1973 as a quartet consisting of David, bassist Rick Stockton, violinist Siegfried Carver & drummer Mike Safron, the band was duly signed to ABC Records to the then unheard-of sum of $500,000. With industry expectations through the roof, Pavlov’s Dog delivered one of the most brilliantly confounding debuts of all time with its initial release “Pampered Menial.” To say the album left journalists sometimes speechless, sometimes tongue-tied, would be a gross understatement. To put it simply, no one had ever heard anything like the incredible songs and vocal performances of this singular effort. Songs including “Julia,” “Late November” & “Of Once & Future Kings” remain concert highlights decades after their release. The foundations of mystery developed throughout the following few years. Concert performances with acts including ELO, Aerosmith, Kraftwerk, Nektar and Blue Oyster Cult met rave reviews. Soon upcoming giants, including Heart, Thin Lizzy, Bob Seger and Journey, found themselves opening shows for Pavlov’s Dog. Comprised of some of Chicago’s most accomplished musicians, The Cyberiam hit the ground running in 2018 with the release of their self-titled debut album and have been described as a “prog tour de force”. Their dynamic live shows and striking stage visuals have resulted in invitations to play at a number of festivals, including Progtoberfest, ProgStock, Marillion Couch Convention and Marillion weekend Montreal, plus an epic performance at Progpower USA. Keith and Brian represented The Cyberiam as a duo opening for Prog power houses Riverside and The Pineapple Thief in 2022 and 2023. The Cyberiam are: Keith Semple (Vocals, Guitars, and Misc. Sound FX), Tom Heslin (Vocals, Bass, and Misc. Sound FX), Frank Lucas (Keyboards and Vocals) and Tommy Murray (Drums and Vocals). Buy Now
