He then formed Messenger in 2008 together with Vlad Gurin, formerly a Sony signed artist with the Moldovan band AGNY. They have produced 3 studio albums with positive reviews; “I’m Talking To You”, “You Choose” and the latest, “In To Win”. Drummer Michael John Hoover joined the band in mid-2017. The Messenger sound arises from Hard Rock, Heavy Metal and Progressive Rock influences that stretch from Black Sabbath to Rush to Alter Bridge. The storyline lyrics of their songs are set in ethereal and complex style music, though sometimes simple and bluesy rock.
They perform live at festivals, fairs, theme parks, events and venues of all kinds, indoors & out. They bring a great show with good music and loud guitars. They have found internet & broadcast radio airplay in North America, South America, England, Australia, Cyprus and Greece. Messenger has shared the stage with Hard Rock & Heavy Metal greats such as Extreme, KIX and W.A.S.P. while also playing large events like the Marine Corps Marathon in DC and the Ocean City Bikefest in Maryland. They look forward to supporting this new album with live performances once the Live Music Venue lockdowns for the Corona virus cease.
