Splinter Biography

There are 3 bands with the name Splinter

1: A 70's era band discovered by the Beatles featuring two members (Bobby Purvis and Bill Elliott).

2: Splinter is a band from Holland consisting of five young enthusiastic guys. Thier music is best classiefied as Progressive Symphonic Rock.

In 2002 they released their first demo 'Luchtkastelen' which made the band play around the Dutch club circuit. In 2003 Mothers Finest guitarist John Hayes 'discovered' Splinter. They played for his solo project as opening act for many times. Hayes produced Splinters second demo 'Reflections' which was received with extremely positive acclaim in magazines like 'Oor', 'Aardschok' and 'iOpages' to name just a few.* In 2004 they recorded most of their repertoire for the unofficial release 'The Devil's Jigsaw'. Again critics were extremely positive about this collection of demo songs. Later that year they would play as support act for supergroup 'Karmakanic', featuring ex. Yngwie Malmsteen vocalist Goran Edman.
In the beginning of 2005 Splinter toured with the Swedish group 'The Flower Kings' as support act.

Last year the band travelled to Sweden to record its debut album with producer Jonas Reingold. The release is expected late 2007.

The band consists of:
