'Louder Than Words' was conceived, written, performed, and produced by Suzi James & Jeremy Shotts, gratefully assisted by 'the Cast'...

​

We're Classic Rock and Prog Music fans (among other styles) going way back, who wanted to create something new from all the music we've listened to.

 

Out of discussions we had about the music we love, came the idea of creating a 'classic' progressive music album of our own. It would incorporate all the elements we enjoyed, and a suitable 'concept'.  The life and works of William Blake is the inspiration, and the result was the album 'Louder Than Words'.

 

It's an affectionate homage to classic prog: new compositions, but aiming to convey a familiar and beloved sound and feel.

​

We like to think of our style as 'Progressive Music', not just 'Prog Rock', as it encompasses elements of rock, jazz, classical, folk - whatever fits with the desired feel or meaning of each piece. However you feel about the concept, it’s probably best to let the music speak for itself.

 

Over the years, we have played in many bands semi-professionally, and our skills  include guitars, bass, keyboards, and anything else within reach.
