Skyhigh - Music

Brothers Andy And Richard Vellacott Have Always Been Passionate About Progressive Rock Music. Richard Recalls “we Always Loved Listening To Bands Like Genesis And Yes And Would Save All Our Pocket Money To Buy Every CD We Could Find!” Although These Days He Is More Often Found Behind A Bank Of Keyboards And Pedals Richard Born In 1974 Is A Classically Trained Pianist Who Started Playing At The Age Of Six. For His Part Andy 18 Months Younger Than Richard Has Played The Drums For As Long As He Can Remember And Is A Regular Session And Live Musician. With 20 20 Hindsight The Fit Seems Obvious But It Wasn’t Until Andy And Richard Went To A Prog Rock Concert In 2007 That They Were Inspired To Start Jamming Together. “From Our Very First Session We Had Some Great Music And Couldn’t Wait For Our Next Opportunity To Get Together ” Says Richard “we Were Both On Each Others’ Wavelength From The Very Beginning”. Andy Picks Up The Story “we Decided To Design And Build Our Own Music Studio So We Could Jam Together Whenever We Wanted To. It Took Us A Few Weeks To Finish But Has Worked Brilliantly – And Most Importantly It’s Still Standing!” In 2009 The Brothers Formed Their Own Progressive Rock Band Vivid Glimpse And Soon Found They Had Written Enough Material For An Album. Richard Explains “It Really Crept Up On Us – We Didn’t Have Any Grand Plan We Just Really Enjoyed Writing And Playing Together. But Then It Struck Us That We Had Written Some Really Great Tracks And We Wanted People To Hear Them.” And So Was Born Their Debut Album “Into The Precipice...” “Into The Precipice...” Features Andy On Lead Vocals Drums And Percussion And Richard On Synths Pianos And Backing Vocals. The Album Contains Eight Original Tracks From Lyrical Ballads Such As “Deep Inside My Heart” And Dramatic Songs Like “Undermined” To Powerful Instrumentals In The Title Track And “Broken Mirrors”. “We’re Incredibly Proud Of Our Work On This Album ” Says Richard “and Hope That Other People Enjoy Listening To It As Much As We Did Writing It.” “We Are Really Excited About The Future For Our Music – We’ve A Lot Of Great Ideas Just Waiting To Come To Life ” Adds Andy And Richard Nods His Head In Agreement.
