Agents Of Mercy is: Roine Stolt (Transatlantic, The Flower Kings) along with Jonas Reingold (Karmakanic, The Tangent), Lalle Larsson (Karmakanic, Weave World) and more.

These venues will be very intimate, meaning smaller, so it's a great opportunity to catch a great band and some master musicians for cheap. They are coming all the way from Sweden so they don't get to the States often.

PRESS CLIPPINGS

"DRAMARAMA "I think I have just died and gone to heaven, the stunning
stages that have been created here by the interaction of such
luminaries, just beggars belief." "The whole beauty of the album is
that it’s a grower, the more time you allocate, the richer the reward
is. I cannot find one negative thing to say about this album; being a
very close contender for album of the year" " John O'Boyle, Dutch
Progressive Rock Pages DPRP

"DRAMARAMA "So along comes 2010 and now we have a brilliant sophomore
release from Agents of Mercy to enjoy called Dramarama. Lead singer
Sylvan sounds like a cross between Gabriel and Fish, he certainly has
a unique and pleasing vocal style that seems to fit quite well with
temperaments and atmospheres provided by Stolt and company." "I have
listened to this album countless times and have not tired one bit from
what it has to offer and there always seem to be something that
catches my ear or touches me on an emotional level that didn't the
previous time I gave it a spin. That is what prog rock is supposed to
do, capture your imagination, create imagery in your mind's eye and
challenge your psyche."" Keith Hannaleck, Various

"DRAMARAMA "As you can imagine from the likes of Roine Stolt, Jonas
Reingold, Lalle Larsson, and Walle Wahlgren, the level of musicianship
is very high. These guys are some of the most talented prog musicians
from Sweden, and it shows on DramaRama. The vocals from Nad Sylvan
took some time for me to appreciate because of his unique tone, but
once they're given some time to sink in, I realized that he's quite a
talented vocalist. The production is terrific. It showcases the modern
amenities in production while maintaining a vintage seventies sound.
This is the perfect sound for the album."" Jeff B, Sea Of Tranquility

These are some of the best musicians today. If they come near you you'll certainly be rewarded if you go see them.

Agents of Mercy - The new band formation of Transatlantic, The Flower Kings, (ex)Kaipa & Tangent guitarist Roine Stolt has spent last week laying down basic tracks for a new album (yet unnamed) in the fashionable Fenix Studios in Sweden’s countryside.

Eleven tracks penned by Stolt and leadvocalist Nad Sylvan materialized with the turbocharged solid rhythm section of Jonas Reingold, Walle Wahlgren and monstrer keyboardwiz Lalle Larsson. The band once again tracked “old school” – meaning ALL musicians were in the room playing for real into a 24 track tape machine, without ANY click tracks safetynets or tempo restriction, hunting for that warm 70′s sound and bring real music alive again. Work will proceed during May-June& July for a late August release - album is said to be both classic prog but leaning to “symphonic glam” and equal parts of Zeppelinesque folksy metal, Hot Rats period Zappa and west end drama as well.

Coming up first though - the band will load the Mellotrons, Harpsichords and kettledrums to sail the oceans to the new world, America, for a handful shows starting May 16th in Milwaukee and ending on May 22nd in Quebec City. European dates will follow from late August.

AGENTS OF MERCY team up with young sensational American art proggers DISTRICT 97 for a double bill. District 97 has an “American Idol” finalist Leslie Hunt fronting, but don’t let that fool you – we’re closer to Zappa, Bruford, The Cardiacs and UK here, but with fabulous professional and hi-energy vocals.

Agents Of Mercy will play songs from old AND New album plus eventually the odd snippet from TFK or Transatlantic. American shows coming your way May 2011 – Tickets on sale NOW!
