DIVIDED SKY is a quartet of entities who feel it necessary to abandon the stagnating confines of traditional rock and create a fresh and exciting vibrant hybrid of sonic pleasures. They have summoned a style of music that most have attempted to classify as heavy divergent rock. What is that, you ask? It is a potent recipe for an aural stew of intelligent rock, jazz, pop and classical influences that makes for an undeniably tasty listening experience.
The band began in 1999 in a basement in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania as an experiment in progressive rock and quickly grew into a full fledged obsession. The music became an escape from sterile, clone-like mainstream trends that plagued the airwaves.
Divided Sky pierces your helpless mind with potent, prophetic lyrics seamlessly woven into a backdrop of vastly dynamic music ranging from serene beauty to total chaos. The band dares to challenge the sensibilities of the listener and assault their ears with unpredictable, often unconventional arrangements and approaches. Heavy, melodic, intricate and often just plain bizarre, Divided Sky represents forward-thinking music at its finest.
