Two
years ago The Pinder Brothers released their acclaimed debut CD Jupiter
Falls and now in 2008 they follow up with the equally impressive
Ordinary Man. The eleven cut OM features the brothers
continuing to combine all manners of pop, rock and folk-rock all on
one CD. Featuring the combined compositional might and musicianship
of Mike Lee Pinder and brother Matt Pinder, Ordinary
Man also features key contributions from their famous dad, Moody
Blues founder Mike Pinder, long time Moody Blues producer Tony
Clarke, along with a host of musicians including rock fusion guitar
ace Stef Burns. Regarding working again with Tony Clarke, this
time on the new Pinder Brothers album, Moodies legend Mike Pinder
states, Working with Tony was like Days of Future Passed.
It was the 'good old days' once again. Studio tools have changed of
course and Tony now works in the studio with a software program called
Logic and although I have used a previous version of Logic, we work
with Pro Tools. Kicking ideas around with Tony was very much like
the old days of Moody recording sessions. Tony still has great ideas.
Just as fine a spin as the brothers '06 debut Jupiter Falls,
the eleven cut Ordinary Man combines a wealth of radio friendly
rockers, most notably the albums spotlight track Inside
Me, a song that could have fit on an early 70s Moody Blues
album, along with other key tracks such as Waves Crash
and the solid rock bounce of Hold Me Tonight. With the
2008 release of Ordinary Man, the Pinder Brothers continue
to perfect their engaging rock and pop chemistry. www.pinderbrothers.com
