The Tower

Bob Catley

A grand, theatrical fusion of hard rock and high fantasy. Sweeping symphonic arrangements meet raspy, emotive vocals to create a cinematic storyteller's experience.

Find on Amazon

It's like a lost Magnum classic written by a fantasy novelist and played with 90s symphonic power.

A grand and noble sense of adventure tempered by a wistful, storyteller's melancholy.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The explosive transition from the atmospheric synth intro of Dreams into its driving hard rock gallop.
The haunting, slowed-down piano melody that anchors the middle section of Deep Winter.
The sheer vocal grit Catley employs during the climactic chorus of the title track.
