PHANTASIA - Seeking All Musicians

About Me

WHAT STARTED OFF AS A PROJECT FOR ALL, TURNED INTO AN ARMY OF ONE. A ONE MAN BAND IF YOU WILL. WRITING AND ARRANGING FROM BEGINNING TO END WITH THE KNOWLEDGE OF ALL THE INSTRUMENTS TO COMBINED THIS HYBRID METAL INTO A UNIQUE SOUND. MICHAEL ALEXANDER ST.JAMES HAS BEEN PLAYING GUITAR FOR 16 YEARS, AND SOON EXPANDED NEW SIGHTS LEARNING THE DRUMS, KEYBOARDS, AND THE ART OF VOCAL MELODY AND HARMONY. AFTER RELOCATING TO CHATTANOOGA TN, IT WAS TIME TO TRY AND GET THIS SHOW ON THE ROAD AGAIN, AND FINDING THE RIGHT MEMBERS TO DO SO. PHANTASIA IS CURRENTLY SEEKING MUSICIANS "WITH VOCALS ABILITIES IF POSSIBLE" TO COMPLETE THIS SOON TO BE U.S. FAVORITE. IF THERE IS EVER A CHANCE FOR YOU TO CATCH A TOUR FROM PHANTASIA, YOUR SIGHTS WON'T BE DISAPPOINTED.Progressive Power Metal When You Want Real Metal
