PANOPTICON
Panopticon: 4 young and incredibly talented guys from Berlin, Germany! Founded in the spring of 2005 the band recorded their debut album “The Die is Castâ€, which was released in February 2006. After some very successful festival and club gigs they earned themselves a reputation as a freakin’, groovin’ progressive rock band with a new edge.
In the spring of 2006 Panopticon was chosen by the American supergroup TOTO (Hold The Line, Africa, Rosanna) to accompany them on their “Falling in Between†open air tour in summer 2006 , which proved very successful for both bands. It was a great experience and a lot of fun, as anybody who knows Steve “Luke†Lukather can imagine. The bands developed a close relationship with one another and will be working together in 2007 as well!
Despite their young ages the members of Panopticon are long-time musicians with much experience. They knew each other from various other musical projects, so it was just a matter of time until they got together to form their own band. Drummer Gordon Herold has even played with artists such as Jeanette Biedermann, Ronan Keating and Helmut Lotti.
Currently Panopticon is recording fresh, new material for their next studio album, which will be released in the fall of 2008! As a band they are constantly progressing and exploring themselves anew.
If you want to get rocked properly and are looking for good groovin’ rock music then you definitely want to book Panopticon, because they will give all they have to rock the audience ‘til the last drop of sweat! They are known for freaking out on stage, because once the music starts flowing they become pretty insane guys!!!!!
Enjoy the music of Panopticon as they did making it!!!!!!
