About Advent Horizon
Advent Horizon is a contemporary hybrid of 70’s prog and 90’s rock with a blues twist. Emerging from the local music scene of Salt Lake City, Advent Horizon mixes high energy performances with lyrical and original songwriting to create a unique musical experience. Advent Horizon is headed by guitarist and lead vocalist Rylee McDonald, with Grant Matheson on guitar, keyboard, and vocals. Cason Wood and Mike Lofgreen, bassist and drummer respectively, account for the group’s rhythm section. A review from Babysue.com had this to say about advent: "Wow. Can these guys play...or what...??!! The origins of the band Advent Horizon began years ago when thirteen year old pals Rylee McDonald and Mike Lofgreen realized they both shared a mutual admiration for the band Rush. The band evolved from that point and is now writing and recording professional rock tunes that could be enjoyed and appreciated by millions. Advent Horizon is currently a quartet and also includes Cason Wood on bass and Levi Benjamin Shell on guitars and backing vocals. Immured bears some resemblance to the previously mentioned Rush (intelligent fast guitar riffs, driving bass lines, etc.)...but the vocals are way better (the harmonies are killer...). The complexity of these songs is impressive and strangely compelling. These guys have obviously done their homework...their songs are smart and memorable...and the playing is absolutely top notch from start to finish. Cool rockers include "Justified," "The Paradise," and "Prince of White." The quartet cites a wide array of influences including progressive bands Rush and King Crimson, as well as blues, funk, and soul ranging from The Black Keys to Tower of Power. Among Advent Horizon’s achievements, the most prominent are: 1st place Utah State battle of the bands 2010 1st place UVU bandocalypse battle of the bands 2013 Performed at NAMM 2012, 2013 and 2014. Opening for Warrant April 2014 Frontman Rylee McDonald opened for STYX, Foreigner and Don Felder July 2014 Advent Horizon would like to thank its musical friends Breedlove Guitars and Phil Jones Bass for their continued support. The band is sounding better than ever! And a very special thank you to Alpine Innovations, without whom we wouldn't be where we are today. For information on booking Advent Horizon please contact the band via adventhorizonband@gmail.com Modern rock meets progressive rock. Advent's music will grab you from first listen. Intelligent guitar and driving bass lines meet soaring, clear vocals.
