Fast-rising fusion guitarist STEVE DADAIAN releases his new full-length concept album, Follow The Light, today, Friday, February 1, 2019. Today, following the release of his three latest tracks/videos for “Follow the Light”, “Soul Connection” (featuring Soilwork’s Bjorn Strid) and “Red River”, STEVE DADAIAN has revealed a brand new music video for the fast-paced track “Beneath The Citadel” – shot and edited by Ethan Bill and filmed in both the Bronx, NY and North Haledon, NJ.
STEVE DADAIAN says about the video: “We decided to shoot a video for “Beneath the Citadel” because it’s a really fun song to play live and conceptually is an important part of the story since it marks the main character’s descent in his journey. A lot of my classical influence is present here too; for example, there is live violin doubling my guitar lines at times and a Bach-inspired fugue that make an appearance amidst the heavy rhythm and lead lines. We filmed this in two locations, one of which was in an underground vault that really gave a cool vibe to the whole shoot.”
Featuring razor-sharp solos, theatrical, symphonic soundscapes and unforgettable melodies, STEVE DADAIAN’s new album, Follow The Light,starts strong with an ominous, movie-soundtrack-ready introduction preparing the listener for the album, aptly titled “The Journey Ahead”. The album wastes no time beginning its epic tale with the metal/jazz fusion track “Follow The Light”, and continues to flux amid orchestral-influenced pieces such as “Forest Requiem” and larger-than-life metal opuses like “Soul Connection”.
Follow The Light can be pre-ordered via Bandcamp, iTunes and Amazon now. The physical version of Follow The Light also includes a written component, allowing the listener to follow the album’s epic story both on paper and in auditory form.
