Progressive / Art Rock Studio Project
The Arc Light Sessions is the brainchild of keyboardist and composer John Alarcon. It is a studio project which specializes in symphonic progressive rock - a style of music that uses rock as a base and adds to that a tasty mixture of elements from classical, jazz and/or folk to create a new concoction. It has a strong following among people who appreciate high quality musicianship and sometimes indulges in longer than average songs. The ultimate goal is to create quality rather than aim at generating mass appeal.
For some, progressive rock is synonymous with progressive metal which leaves the more pastoral elements out of the repertoire of some groups. This style, favored by some, is not what The Arc Light Sessions is about. The music is also not about length for length's sake. The songs develop organically and contain musical passages where warranted but the intent is to have them fit thematically into each piece.
If you enjoy what you hear on our YouTube page, consider purchasing one of our releases in order to support our creative efforts. We would do this for nothing because the need to produce art comes from the soul. That being said this music takes much time and effort to produce so please help us fight internet piracy by purchasing it through one of our licensed partners such as ITunes or CDBaby.
Below is the cover of the latest album entitled "ReMastered" which will is now officially released and can be acquired by clicking on the discography link on the main menu. Full song previews are available so you can be certain before buying.
My YouTube page also has selected tracks.
