Massimo (Drums, V-Drums, and Keys), John Swana (EVI & Trumpet), Steve Giordano (Guitar), and Chico Huff (Bass).
2006 Release
This is Massimo's first official release. Playing in varied styles this talented drummer he describes his music and drumming style as “…an attempt to bring the listener’s awareness to a higher level….
"It's always exciting to uncover a surprising new talent—the kid who comes out of nowhere. Hailing from Philly by way of Italy, Massimo DeAngelis (who prefers to be known as “Massimo”), at 40-plus no young kid perhaps, arrives as prog-fusion drumming’s newest gun on the block. He's also, simultaneously, a seasoned veteran capable of stepping into any drum chair that may become vacant—from, for example, the one in Dream Theater, to any number of mainstream jazzers, such as John Swana."
