Trk Project - Kay & Gerda (2020)

The fourth album from this band from Poland.

The band was a quartet with a lineup of drums, percussion, bass, guitars and keyboards. 

Two vocalists added their vocals.

This ninety-five minutes long album is one strange album. But it has a novel idea.

Kay & Gerda is based on the Hans Christian Andersen story The Snow Queen. Not a bad idea.... But it has been taken to a new level again.

We get exactly the music here performed twice over two CDs. The first CD, Gerda has the female vocals of Carolina Lezko, a regular lead vocalist on the Trk Project albums. The second CD has the male vocals of David Lewandowski.

We can then make up our own mind..... who is the best vocalist ? Carolina's vocals is just a millimeter better than David's vocals. 

The music is soft neo-prog and art rock with some musicals influences. The music is actually good and there is no problems with that. My only gripe is that is is a bit too soft and sugary sweet. I am not so sure if I like the concept here.... the music twice with two different vocalists. 

Nevertheless, this is an album well worth checking out. The band will release their new album early next year and I will come back to that with a review when I get it. All their albums is good albums and should be checked out.
