Byron started playing in 2006 and, since then, has released five studio albums and two live DVDs. The chameleonic and constantly evolving sound of the band comes from the somewhat divergent influences of the band members, combined with Dan Byron's background in progressive/ acoustic rock.
Eternal Return, Byron's new album launched last fall, was recorded in High Resolution at Windmill Lane, "the U2 studios" in Dublin, while the mastering was done by Frank Arkwright (New Order, Joy Division, Blur, Arcade Fire, etc.) at the renowned Abbey Road studio in London. On this album, the band returned to an art rock sound, with slight touches of alternative and progressive music, the piano, the flute and the occasional electronic elements adding color and enriching the rock background.
Byron composed the original soundtrack of the HBO Romania TV series Rămâi cu mine. They filmed a "Live Underground" concert 100 meters deep in Salina Turda and recorded their most daring project, Electric Marching Band, a fusion between rock band, military band and children choir, with Alexander Balanescu as special guest. The sold out concert took place in December 2014, at the National Theatre in Cluj, aired on HBO Romania and was released on DVD in September 2015.
Line-up: Dan Byron - vocals, guitar, flute; Sergiu "6fingers" Mitrofan - keyboards, guitar, vocals; Laszlo Demeter - bass; Dan Georgescu - drums.
