    SAY has now been out for just over one week. The band's superb video for the single SAY can be seen via the following link:

    https://youtu.be/ZgELlG_VTVg

    Here's what the press are SAYing so far:

    Say is a really intriguing album when if you open yourself to it, you can lose yourself in it. The album is surprising and progressive, without the customary clichés of prog rock, and is home to beautiful melodies and outstanding (duo) vocals from Rob Cottingham and Rachel Hill." Progwereld

    "The whole comes across as a good mix between Porcupine Tree, Marillion and Dream Theater but carries its own identity". 87/100. Lords of Metal

    "A touch of 90125 Yes about it…fantastic melodies…a band giving it their all. The real winner is us, the audience". Progarchy

    There are different tracks from the album on the current cover mount CDs from both Prog Magazine and Rock Society (the CRS Magazine)

    Don't forget you can see the band live at:

    18th November. Boston Music Rooms, London with support Luna Rossa
    19th November. Wesley Centre, Maltby with support Luna Rossa
    20th November. The Musician, Leicester with support Luna Rossa
    2nd April 2017. The Robin, Bilston (Nineteen-73 Live with Magenta)

    Love it! I was very happy for Rob Cottingham when he started to talk about his new band. If I can't cross the pond, I hope Cairo crosses it this way someday!

    For a second I thought this was a new album by this band: http://www.progarchives.com/artist.asp?id=49

    It sounds like it would have been new material by that Cairo as well. This is gonna confuse a good handful of people.

    So....not the same band?

    They couldn't come up with an original name?

    I am a newbie; live in the UK; been into prog years and not heard of the US one, to be honest (sorry, and no disrespect to anyone) - but I have heard of the Canadian band of the same name - cool vids. The new UK band have shown the inspiration for the name here. http://cairorocks.com/cairo-band-name-origins/ and seem to have gone out of their way to make it clear they are a new UK band on their YouTube stuff, to be fair to the guys. Their new album has been personally endorsed by Steve Hackett, and it seems to be getting great reviews. Going to try and make one of their gigs, wife-willing... If I get flight clearance, will report back.
