Tom Szakaly - Keyboards
Tom was born in Rochdale, Lancashire. He started piano lessons at the age of six and continued until the age of seventeen..Tom has been an ardent ELP fan ever since hearing 'Pictures At An Exhibition' when he was fourteen. He experimented and diversified at home with styles such as 12 bar, Boogie and Jazz, as well as working out his favourite ELP tracks.His first job gave him a background in electronics and by the age of nineteen he had already built his first synthesiser from a kit. Eventually, financed by his job as a television repairman, a Crumar electronic piano was obtained to supplement the synth.In 1979 working for a new employer, Tom heard that one of his new colleagues was selling a Hammond Organ. This was quickly acquired and together with his 'arsenal' of instruments, Hammond, Electronic Piano, Synth etc.
Steve Roberts - Drums & Percussion
Steve started playing drums aged 11 and has remained committed to his musical cause ever since. He started listening to hard rock bands but soon took in ELP, Yes, Chick Corea and other progressive/jazz/rock artists. After school bands his musical path turned towards live performance with rock and pop acts. A love of jazz also grew and he has since been playing regularly with various jazz trios, quartets and big bands around the UK, including The Heavy Quartet. He also still leads his own outfit, 'The Steve Roberts Band', playing jazz originals penned by himself and arrangements of other pieces, sometimes classical in origin, including one of Ginastera's 'Danzas Argentinas'.
His musical career has taken him all over the UK, Holland, Germany, where he was based with 'The Dostoyevskys' after their European release on BMG: 'Orange' and even a 24 state tour of the USA in 2003/4 with UK band 'They Walk Among Us'. With his technical abilities and dynamic subtleties, he is equally at home within many styles of music, live and in the studio and although working within bands as a member, also plays sessions independently. He also teaches within schools & privately.
Graham Seaman - Guitars & Vocals
Graham's musical career commenced at the age of 12, after his father taught him the rudiments of guitar playing, and introduced him to the wonders of the Bert Weedon songbook. Growing up in Liverpool during the 60's it was impossible to ignore the influence of the Beatles on his musical direction, and the band output (together and individually) remain a favourite to this day. His musical tastes developed to take in the rock genre, and bands such as Free, Zeppelin and Deep Purple started making their way onto his turntable. In 1972 a school mate brought around an album featuring a mythical tank/armadillo character on its cover and after the third play, Graham was hooked on the power of progressive rock and (more specifically) Emerson, Lake and Palmer.
Graham has been working with EMP (E-Music Project) - a group of talented musicians located in the USA who record and produce covers of ELP and Beatles tracks over the Internet. So far Graham has provided vocals on most of the bands ELP covers, as well as playing guitar on 'Lucky Man' and 'I Believe in Father Xmas'. He has built a home studio which he uses to record his daughter and other artists, as well as to produce his own music.
