Wake up The Child (Red Sand, 2024)

By browsing this site's past reviews you'll find several tracks by Red Sand, an excellent neo-prog band from Québec, Canada. Their 2024 album titled "Pain't Box" is another beautiful collection of melodic, hypnotic songs. This "Wake up The Child", for example, offers everything a prog fan could dream of: a well written theme, inspiring variations, sensitive vocals (Michel Renaud recemtly joined the band and is a valuable addition)  and of course Simon Caron's dreamy guitar solos. 

Red Sand surely know how to paint musical landscapes...

Perry Angelillo's impeccable drums and Simon's keyboard atmospheric work wrap up this song with good taste and heartwarming colours. This warm, soft and hearty feeling is the trademark of a band I will ever recommend to my prog fellows.
