Prog For Peart 2023 - two day rock festival

Cosmograf is Robin Armstrong, a progressive-rock musician from Waterlooville near Portsmouth, U.K. He plays guitars, keyboards, bass, and drums, as well as singing. He records his music in his home studio. Cosmograf was born in 2008 when Robin produced his first home demo album, Freed from the Anguish followed by the release of End of Ecclesia in 2009. The next release When Age Has Done Its Duty showed a huge uplift both in writing and production quality and captured the attention of the progressive rock community, and the press alike, leading to a Limelight nomination in the PROG magazine awards. The Cosmograf sound is rooted in 70s classic rock with many contemporary influences from rock, progressive rock and metal. There is always a particular emphasis on concepts and atmospheric production leading to comparisons with artists such as Pink Floyd, Porcupine Tree, and Steven Wilson. The latest album Heroic Materials has received praise from all side upon its mid 2022 release and subsequently appeared on several Prog Magazine writers Albums of The Year lists. This Summer 2023, they return to the live area again after a long absence and headline the Friday of the two-day Prog For Peart festival raising money for brain cancer in memory of Rush drummer Neil Peart.
