Progressive Art Rock Event with SIOS in Concert @ 10th Street Live

The up and coming progressive art
rock band SIOS returns to the stage at the popular local rock venue, 10th
Street Live, located at 104 North 10th Street, Kenilworth, NJ with a
renewed vigor that promises to astound their audience. After a short live
performance hiatus that has allowed them to work on their next upcoming CD
release they are looking forward to a special evening of that special music
magic that is SIOS.



SIOS looks to break barriers and
leave their mark in and beyond the music world. The band is made up of four
self-taught individuals who go above and beyond to create an eclectic world;
not only through their music, but also through the fictional concept they have
created to serve as the backdrop to their sound. During an uncertain period in
his life, lead guitarist Christian “Enigma” Cruz decided to reach out  to former guitar student and band mate Phillip
“Dice” Defreitas, to begin a new band with the goal of reaching millions of
people and sharing their unique ideas with the world. Through this common idea,
Gabriel Scholis-Fernandez soon joined the band, adding his passion and unique
playing style to the mix. Rhythm guitarist Jake Ball was the last piece added
to the puzzle; adding a new texture to the already eclectic sound. Through hard
work and dedication, SIOS soon became a cohesive concept and sound; intriguing
those around them to be a part of the energy.



In late 2012, SIOS released their
debut full-length album titled "Halcyon Failure" to rave reviews. The
album was produced and engineered by Kevin Antreassian, who also worked with
Dillinger Escape Plan, Chris Pennie, Foxy Shazam, and Mike Portnoy. Since the
release,  SIOS has opened up for the
widely known progressive outfit known as “3” at the famous Maxwell’s in
Hoboken, have been featured in prominent publications like “The Aquarian” and
“The Star-ledger”, and have been reviewed and well received in Germany and
other European countiries. With a vast musical landscape and a story behind the
music readily available to submerge oneself into, SIOS gives the people what
they deserve.
