Dukes of the Orient is the masterful pairing of vocalist John Payne (ex-ASIA, GPS) with keyboardist Erik Norlander (Last in Line, Lana Lane, Rocket Scientists). It is a fine mix of AOR style hard rock with prog accents.



Dukes of the Orient released their self titled debut album with stunning cover art by Rodney Matthews on February 23, 2018.

Listened to the first two songs. I've never heard of these guys before seeing your post in another thread a little bit ago. Definitely a modernized 'prog' feel to these songs. Not bad at all.

Very proggy!, good musicianship, the keyboard player has some great Synths at his disposal, the first vid shows a modular synth, a Minimoog, and a Moog Voyager, I only own one Moog,....a Subsequent 37 :(
