Beyond The Mirage on CD

The Fragments of Wonder, Wonders' 2021 debut album, enlightened our world with outstanding, sensational pieces of work. A catchy record, seamlessly crafted on the Greek/Italian precious metal workbench, instantly demanding a strong follow-up. Here they are: "Beyond The Mirage" brings back

powerful anthems, skillful guitar play, progressive patterns, and a great voice.

The Wonders side-project profits from a perfect line-up: these guys are real characters with attitude. Listen to any of Bob Katsionis' collaborations and you will experience exceptionally designed soundscapes. Same happens if you dig into the musical worlds of brothers Pietro Paulo Lunesu (guitar) and Giorgio Lunesu (drums), hailing from the Mediterranean

island of Sardinia. Back in 1999 they started their band EVEN FLOW. Since 2017, Wonders frontman Marco Pastorino from Northern Italy has been a member of EVEN FLOW's lineup. Marco's principal band TEMPERANCE, featuring his skills as lead guitarist and lead singer alike, delivered six stylistically widespread progressive long play albums in less than a

decade.

The compositions of Wonders work out great, thanks to the Lunesu brothers' fluent play with Bob, Marco and TEMPERANCE bassist Luca Negro. Working duties were strictly shared: Pietro Paolo delivered songwriting and guitar play, Marco left his axe in it's case, concentrating on lead vocals, and Bob orchestrated a multi-tasking job, playing the keyboards,

arranging songs, managing the studio production, and also taking care of the album's cover artwork
