Sunrunner is a heavy-prog band formed in 2008 in Portland, Maine, USA. They debuted with the album "Eyes Of The Master" (2011), a prog rock record with heavy metal leanings. Since their second album "Time In Stone" (2013), Sunrunner had solidified more into a metal band with prog influence. "Heliodromus", released in 2015 by Minotauro Records, defined the term "heavy-prog" as the band's genre. "Heliodromus" got excellent response from press, especially because of it's own music identity: "A perfect album" (Pest Webzine/Romania); "Phenomenal Music" (Rock Hard/Slovenia); "Heliodromus is an absolute 'must' for all fans of unconventional heavy metal" - (Powermetal/Germany), "Simply awesome" (RumorsMag/Brazil). The tour in promotion of "Heliodromus" included dates in USA, South America and Russia, where they've played at Belomor-Boogie Festival in Akhangelsk. Back to the US, Sunrunner started to work on it's new album, "Ancient Arts Of Survival". A little less eccentric and experimental, "Ancient Arts Of Survival" is more reminiscent of the band's roots. More metal than prog rock, but still plenty of odd time signatures with lots of 5's and 9's. The title "Ancient Arts Of Survival" reflects a time when mankind had the abilities to be in control of his own destiny. The cover artwork is signed by the artist Jan Michael Barlow and perfectly reflects the title and it's concept. For the production of "Ancient Arts Of Survival", Sunrunner once again mixed both the analog and digital recording systems respectively. All main vocals were recorded at Stone Studio in Brazil, as "Ancient Arts Of Survival" marks the debut of the band's new vocalist, the Brazilian Bruno Neves. The three Grammy Award-winner producer Bob Katz was responsible for the mastering. For the promotion of "Ancient Arts Of Survival", in October Sunrunner embarks for it's first European Tour. They will play 10 shows in Germany, Holland, Romania, Hungary, Slovakia, Czech Republic and Poland.
