On May 17th, 2013 Escape supported the Austrian top act Klimmstein at the GMD Graz.

An enthusiastic audience of close to 200 celebrated the “coming home” of the newly formed band “Klimmstein”. The Band around Max Bieder currently works on its new album and some of the songs were performed live on this memorable evening.

Escape used the opportunity to play three of its new songs besides several titles from its album “City of Dreams”.

We have posted a sound sample of the brand new song “Too close to call” in the “Sound Bites” section of this page.

Thanks to all the Klimmstein and Escape supporters for making this evening such an outstanding event!

Don’t forget to stop by at Escape’s main concert at the GMD Graz on Saturday, June 8th, 2013!

We will be supported by Sinetry, start time: 8:30pm

On the 5th of February Escape appeared at Inspired Gaming Groups Industry Party at the Gherkin Roofbar in the City of London.
We played in an unplugged format in front of a crowd of 250 international guests!
We would like to thank Luke Alvarez and Lucy Buckley for making it possible for us to appear in such a fantastic setting!

In late January a group of Styrian artists set out to conquer Los Angeles.
On invitation of our friend Chris Samu we went to visit the world’s largest music industry show NAMM in Anaheim, California.
We stands for:
Markus Bieder – owner of “Projact Studios” in Thal and leader of the band “Klimmstein”
Nikolai Blaskovic – owner of “The Guitar School” Graz and Escape lead guitar player
Gerhard Burda - owner of “Escapes Productions” and Escape Singer/Songwriter
Salvatore Denaro - professional multi-instrumentalist and Escape drummer
Gernot Hoefler – sound engineer and gear wizard
Roland Krainz - sound engineer, producer, mastermind and Escape keyboarder

For one week we felt like Alice in Wonderland!
All that gear, all this famous musicians (we met with Steve Lukather, Tony Levin, Doyle Dykes and many more).
Very special encounters we had with our (now) friend T.M. Stevens, who bravely kept up with the Austrians when it came to Jaegermeister and Red Bull Vodka….as well as Michael Landau, who appeared at the “Baked Potato” in L.A. and we happened to hang out with him at the back door talking gear and vintage guitars.
For the recording freaks of our group, meeting Rupert Neve and Dave Pensado at L.A.’s Vintage King undoubtedly represented another highlight.
Thanks to Kate Sumner we got a tour through Henson Studios in L.A. Special thanks go to Faryal Russell, who took the time to give us the history of this fantastic place to record music.
Faryal, hope you liked the Austrian chocolate!

No doubt that “We’ll be back”!
