The Glim Project is a progressive punkrock band, formed in 2004 by Lucanus Randall in Vancouver Canada, which now calls Luzern Switzerland their home. In Canada they played over 100 shows and did two European tours. Songwriter Luke fell in love with a Swiss girl and decided to move over. In Switzerland he found guitarist Christopf Grob (Made in Mind), Claudio Berger (Artificial Superstition) on the bass and Kajo Böni (Beyond the Collapse) behind the drums as new band members.
Bands as Dream Theater, Thrice, A Perfect Circle and At the drive In inspired them to create a mixture of sound that doesn’t exactly fit in an unique genre. It’s high energetic Rock with a touch of Punk, Metal and Blues. The bands strongest suit is their live show. They earned their reputation as an extremely energetic and explosive band, which also interacts directly with the audience instead of putting on an image of being above them, what has not only won the respect and accolades of their fans, but also the bands they share the stage with. In the short time since the new incarnation of Glim Projects formation, the band has been fortunate to play some of the best venues in Switzerland, including;
- Grabenhalle (St.Gallen)
- Schüür (Luzern)
- Treibhaus (Luzern)
- Gaswerk (Winterthur) as support for Favez on March 11th
With their 2nd 5 song EP being released in March 2011, followed by a new Full length album in Winter 2011, the Glim project are pushing forward, and releasing their music in every possible setting, live, recorded, and on the internet. See them live and you’ll get furious guitars, on the fly time, tempo changes, complex riffs, as well as moments of atmospheric calm, all held together by driving vocals.
