FONYA is an American Progressive rock band led by multi-instrumentist Chris FOURNIER. Sometimes accompanied by his brother Phil on vocals, he plays an interesting music built on keyboards sequences and guitar parts, a bit in the way of DJAM KARET or EDHELS. On "Earth Shaper", Chris FOURNIER goes on his way of instrumental music full of tranquility and serenity: guitar, bass, keyboards, and programed drums interplay and create rich melodic musical shapes as a basis for the listerner's imagination. A dreamy and suggestive music. On "Perfect Cosmological Principle", they go towards a kind of music built on multiple keyboards developments, with some guitar solos evoking Mike OLDFIELD in the Seventies. They even make a cover version of YES' "The Gates Of Delirium". The sixth album called "Upper Level - Open Space" (1999) performs an ethereal, suggestive and picturesque music, thanks to beautiful melodies. The result is a kind of instrumental music situated between Progressive rock and new-age. Meditative and dynamic at the same time, it sometimes reminds PINK FLOYD, TANGERINE DREAM or Mike OLDFIELD. Not to be missed !
