Nad Sylvan, known as vocalist with legendary guitarist Steve Hackett, announces his vulnerable & personal new solo album ‘Monumentata’ for release on June 20th, 2025, via InsideOutMusic. Sylvan's music draws heavily from the golden age of progressive rock while blending in folk, classical, and modern rock influences, resulting in a sound that feels both classic and contemporary.

This collection of 8 tracks continues

bridging those styles while sprinkling in a

few more, from the jazzy-pop feel of

“Flowerland” to the 60’s R&B influenced

“Monte Carlo Priceless,” to the aggressive rock

flavour of “That’s Not Me.”

While Sylvan handles vocals, keyboards and

most of the guitar parts, the album features a

number of notable guest appearances,

including guitarists Randy McStine, David

Kollar, and Neil Whitford. The drummers on

the record include Marco Minnemann, Mirko

DeMaio, and Felix Lerhmann. On bass, the

singer is helped out by fellow Hackett band

member Jonas Reingold, Nick Beggs, and

Tony Levin.

It is the latter track that was recently launched , and you can watch the video for “That’s Not Me” here: https://youtu.be/5WyD5bIAHdA

NEW

SCI-FI BOOK!

THE

LIBERTY CODE

In a near-future America, where democracy has collapsed under the iron grip of the Commonwealth Party, redemption lies in the unlikeliest of places—a novel. The Liberty Code, penned by decorated Marine veteran and journalist Sam Edwards, uncovers the hidden truths of a dystopian world teetering on the edge of annihilation.

Guided by telepathic messages from two Centauri extraterrestrial ambassadors, J-Rod and Naxia, who secretly collaborate with the U.S. Air Force, Edwards reveals a master plan to save Earth. This gripping tale begins as fiction but evolves into a stark reality, reflecting real-world geopolitical conflicts and revolutionary military operations.

TO WATCH THE ENTIRE INTERVIEW

Jakko M. Jakszyk, perhaps most recently known as lead singer and second guitarist in King Crimson, is proud to announce his new solo album ‘Son Of Glen’ – set for release on June 27th, 2025. The record is a companion piece of sorts to his acclaimed memoir ‘Who’s The Boy With The Lovely Hair’, that was released in October 2024 and explores many of the themes and the subjects that the book touches upon.

To coincide with this announcement, you can now hear the stunning 10-minute-long title track on YouTube. Jakko's remarkable songcraft is evident on ‘Son Of Glen’, as his elegiac lyric muses on our fixation with nostalgia and the human condition, and yet where great songwriting, pathos and poetry would be enough to satiate most listeners, let us not forget that Jakko is (somewhat enviably) also a phenomenal guitarist,

exceptional singer and multi-instrumentalist, whose precision production and skill for crafting glorious spatial soundscapes takes his arsenal of talents and skills, to a place where it's more than justified to say, there is no one else quite like Jakko, doing everything that he does, with the proficiency he does it.

‘Son Of Glen’ will be available as a Limited CD Digipak, Gatefold LP & as Digital Album.
