Biographie

  • Caspian (formed in 2003) is an American experimental and post-rock band who released their debut double-disc album “The Four Trees” in 2007, hailing from Beverly, Massachusetts, U.S.

    Originally comprised of guitarist and keyboard player Philip Jamieson, guitarist Calvin Joss, bassist Christ Friedrich, and drummer Joe Vickers, Caspian initially formed in 2003. After developing an early demo tape in which to sell at shows and send to labels, the group spent the majority of 2004 and 2005 on tour, opening for the likes of Japanese post-rock band Mono. Following a successful run of shows Caspian signed with Dopamine Records who issued the band’s debut EP “You Are the Conductor” in November 2005. In support of the record Caspian headed out on a modest tour of the North East before embarking on their debut national tour in April 2006.

    Once again released on Dopamine Records, Caspian’s debut full-length album “The Four Trees” arrived in April 2007. Voted the No. 1 album of 2007 by The Silent Ballet, the record did wonders for the band's post-rock reputation as well as expanding their fan base beyond the genre. Guitarist Calvin Joss departed the band ahead of the supporting tour and was replaced by former The Fly-Agaris Sky member Erin Burke-Moran. Caspian’s sophomore album “Tertia” followed in August 2009, which, like its predecessor was recorded with Ethan Dussault at the production reigns. The record was followed by the band’s most extensive touring to date, with two huge European tours and a two-month North American tour.

    In 2011 the band performed at the 2011 SXSW Festival before heading to Europe for an eight-day tour of Germany, Poland, and the Netherlands. Caspian’s third album “Walking Season” arrived in September 2012 and was promoted on tour in support of Minus the Bear. The live EP “Live at Old South Church” subsequently arrived in 2012, followed by the EP “Hymn For the Greatest Generation” in 2013.

  • Caspian

    "Waking Season"

    Music is universal, and there are very few bands during this time that can effortlessly get their message across with little to no lyrics or vocals, Caspian is one of those bands.

    Their music works for everything from driving while exploring the world around you, a bad breakup where you need to vent to find yourself again, or just the need to feel your chest tighten with emotion where breathing becomes a poetic gift. They cross seas and lands to reach a new height for their music, allowing their beauty to ring in your ears and mind as soon as you step out of the venue. I even told some of the band members this to show my appreciation and gratitude for making this music, music that held a line right through me.

    Not just any silly twine, they sunk their line into a vast ocean of waves and I grabbed on by listening to 00034 / You Are The Conductor, the beginning of my instrumental journey; it was as tranquil as morning dew on a field of grass that reminds you, its all yours in those moments.

    As years went onward I found delicate candles of flame lighting up the once vast space around me, as I found individuals at shows that were there on the same level of music appreciation talking about Caspian as well, a universal bliss. Lines can be crossed, spread, and found in other areas of the globe, from talking, feeling and enjoying those moments with others engulfed by the flowing music.

    When you are at the next Caspian show and just as soon as you are feeling the music to take hold look around, and in that time just know it will feel natural to have your jaw suddenly open as you notice others just like yourself are in the same meditative trance you are in, now enjoy it.

    Let's just say I missed out on my effort to see them for a second time as their show was Sold Out! It was bittersweet since I didn't see them perform, but I knew others who may have never seen them now had that privilege and enjoyment I had.

    You all heard the records and now watch them live, trust me.

    I am happy they are getting the recognition they deserve and I wish them the best on their journey of making the world enormously brighter and beautiful, and to all of you reading You Are The Conductor.

    Thank You Caspian

  • Despite being delayed by TWO breakdowns on the road to Madrid AND getting told by the management to clear out early (boo!), Caspian blew the roof off. This was my first time seeing them after about two years of following them closely, and it was well worth the delays and the curtailed show.

    You can expect to do a lot of head-banging to some of their music; it's got a badass metal vibe, just instrumental. What makes them unique, then, is their versatility, because some of their songs will leave you close to tears. The final song they performed was "Gone in Bloom and Bough," and it began with a minute-long recording of Bluebird, by Charles Bukowski. Bukowski concludes by asking us if we weep--and this 10 minutes song is enough to do so. It starts and ends with a crescendo of guitars and ambient sounds--not quite like something Sigur Ros does occasionally, but not far off--and leaves you with chills. If you're new to post-rock and want to experience it in all its emotive ups and downs and gloriously undulating songs, Caspian is a great band to start with.

  • Most reviews are supposed to be enthusiastic, but I can't be. It's the second time I see Caspian and my feelings are more than mixed. On stage, the band seem to forget the melodic side of their music, to concentrate only on building a wall of sound, with just some moments on relief. They really succeed at this, they display a lot of energy and fill the air with thick and powerful layers of sound. The slap in the face is spectacular, the light show pretty good, but in the end, the music is mostly gone and that's a pity. Personnaly, it's not what I appreciate Caspian for on CD, and I could see in the audiance that I wasn't the only one.

    In a nutshell, Caspian live is not post-rock but rather 200% metal : many people probably enjoy it, but it's best to be prepared :)

  • The band themselves were awesome, awesome atmosphere, precise performance, cool guys even to hang out with and chitchat.

    The only problem was the soundcheck, which I assume wasn't done the right way, since the lead guitarist was relatively quiet and one couldn't even follow the rhythm and meldoy from time to time for someone who didn't know the songs.

    And the loudness was also problematic. It was seriously extremely loud, I still have ringing in my ear.

    Other than that, the performance was awesoooome! Would definitely come to see them again, preferebly in some arena, since they are a post-rock/metal band and there are lots of different layers to their songs and different sounds and frequencies need room to breathe

  • Without a doubt one of the best concerts of the year so far. If you look at the video of Sycamore (Audiotree Live), you'll get the idea of how the concert was. They did not take a minute to return to the stage for encores, ending with this fabulous song. Erin broke his fourth string, but that did not stop him playing; even allowed to change and continue playing keyboards at once. As I've always been repeating since ages ago, the acoustics of the Apollo is not the best, but Caspian knew perfectly how to tune their equipment to sound flawless. Thanks Caspian !!!!

  • Caspian was amazing as usual! It was 85 that night, but in the bar(the Hideout, San Diego) it was near 100 degrees and I was literally pouring sweat profusely . I couldn't stay the entire set because of severe dehydration, and I was only drinking water, and plenty of it. It was my birthday, so I'm extra bummed out I couldn't hang till the end of the show, where I heard they all did some kind of cool drumming. Still, I enjoyed them while I was able to be inside. Hope to see them again real soon, under better weather conditions!!

  • Amazing show. The band can do everything on the album in a live setting, and rock even harder live than on the album.

    Bonus kudos for the guy running the light "show" - done all by hand, it melded _perfectly_ with the show. I honestly haven't seen it done that well in years. (or, come to think of it, since their live DVD)

    Put it together, and if you're at all a fan, make sure to attend.

  • Fantastic. Great skill and energy. Three extremely talented guitarists plus the bassist and drummer. Finished up with a huge finale, with two guitarists drumming. Very glad I attended this show.
