The history of ALSO EDEN goes back to 1993 when singer Huw Lloyd-Jones moved to Cheltenham and found like-minded keyboardist Ian Hodson. It wasn't until 2003 that Huw and Ian seriously began writing music. The band’s first album, About Time, was recorded. The opening piece "Between the lines" and the epic "For Bumble" are still a firm part of the live program today. A second album followed, "It's kind of you to ask" (2008), live performances at Night of the Prog, Progfarm, and ProckFest, as well as tours in the UK, Benelux, Germany, and Switzerland. The last performance of 2009 was at the Summer's End Festival. After that, Huw left the band, played music for years with Unto Us, while Also Eden recorded two more albums with a new singer. In 2021, Huw and Ian came together again to give a one-time concert as Also Eden, had so much fun that they decided to revive the band together. With PPR, Huw and Also Eden have been friendly since the early days and have been repeatedly welcomed as guests in the Rhine-Main area.

LIGHT DAMAGE was founded in 2005 through a meeting of two passionate musicians. Quickly, more members joined to form a complete combo. The band started by playing cover songs and performing in small venues and at local events. The need to express themselves in a more personal way through their own compositions arose quite quickly. In 2009, some tracks were recorded on a demo called "Acronym," and some of these tracks were to be released on an album called "Light Damage." The official release date for this album was January 2015, as the group signed with the label Progressive Promotion Records on that day. After the album was enthusiastically received by critics and audiences, requests for concerts quickly followed. They appeared at renowned European festivals such as Prog'Résiste (Belgium), PPR Festival (Germany), Summer’s End Festival (UK), and Prog En Beauce (France). The successor "Numbers" confirmed the success of the debut, and after a series of EPs, the third album is nearing completion.

VLYES is a newcomer in the prog scene. Well, that’s not entirely true, as "Vlyes" is a project by Kay Söhl and Jens Lueck. Lueck is known from “Single Celled Organism“ and “Isgaard“. Söhl was a co-founder of the German prog institution "Sylvan" and significantly shaped the typical “Sylvan” sound with his excellent guitar playing on the first seven albums. After a fourteen-year musical hiatus, Kay Söhl, along with his collaborators, finally released a studio album with 'Why' on PPR and celebrates the stage premiere with Vlyes at the Rind.
