Description
Transcendence is a progressive rock band from Dallas/Ft. Worth, formed in the late ‘90s by Kirk Wood (bass), Jeff Ford (guitar), Greg Drew (vocals), John Von Rosenberg (drums), and John Howser (keyboards). They hit the spotlight in 2002 with their debut, “The Meridian Project”, which topped MP3.com charts, driven by the #1 single “Alpha Omega”. The band later toured with prog icons like Dream Theater and Geoff Tate, cementing their reputation.
After lineup shifts — including drummer Derrek Edwards replacing Von Rosenberg and the departure of vocalist Greg Drew — longtime fan Brian Dixon (Resonance Theory/X Opus) stepped in, revitalizing their sound. Now, Transcendence is gearing up to release “Nothing Etched in Stone”, a double concept release split into two albums that promises to expand their progressive roots. With a legacy of intricate, storytelling-driven rock and a bold new chapter ahead, Transcendence is a must-listen for fans of the genre.
