Hard Rock Band A-Z Release Video for “Stranded”

“…Packed full of infectious riffs and melodies, as well as the ingenious interplay of a rhythm section seldom heard in such direct music, this band delivers an absolutely, narcotic variation of a genre I’d previously met with great derision. Can’t. Stop. Listening…” -Sonic Perspectives The debut album from A-Z is a fantastic & fresh-sounding first effort from these seasoned professionals. Let’s hope there are many more to come!-The Prog Report

In early 2020, famed former drummer for Fates Warning and WarlordMark Zonder, began working on new material with the vision of beginning a new, full-time band that would offer something distinctly different from his previous work. The mission was to deliver straightforward, no-frills hard rock that speaks to a broader audience. The end result, which sees Zonder reunite with Fates Warning lead vocalist Ray Alder, along with bassist Philip Bynoe (Steve Vai, Warlord), guitarist Joop Wolters, and keyboardist Vivien Lalu, is A-Z!
