  X-Panda – Progressive metal and fusion band from Estonia!Website:            www.x-panda.net            http://www.facebook.com/pages/X-Panda/158985547481592            www.myspace.com/xpandaband            youtube video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o3a93FbZvVk            youtube channel: http://www.youtube.com/user/ristoromot            Digital album: http://www.cdbaby.com/cd/xpandaBand biography:X-Panda is a progressive metal and fusion band from Estonia. The band is known for their concerts full of emotion and power - pure pleasure for people who like to dream, imagine and feel.  The music of X-Panda will move both experienced musicians and just music lovers. Their creations are full of surprises and changes of mood, sounds, complex rhythmical characters, rhythmic illusions, jazz-fusion chord progressions, mean and evil guitar riffs and in all this one can also find heroic film music melodies that you can sing along to.X-Panda tries to expand their musical horizon and knowledge by creating technically and musically more entertaining music for themselves in the first place.  The band was founded as a one time project for an original song competition in april 2009.  They ended up winning the competition with a song "Dickybirds". The feedback for such unusual music approach was extremely positive, so they decided to continue as a band. X-Panda has won several competitions, including the title Noortebänd 2010, which is one of the two biggest band competitions held in Estonia. X-Panda released their debut album ´´Flight of Fancy´´ in september 2011                                                                                         Kaarel Tamra about X-Panda: "I think that it is unusual that four people can share the same musical interests. It is so cool that sometimes  when beginning to describe a particular riff or pattern, they already know what to do without me even saying it. I find that really rare  and special. We have a really good chemistry and we are all such good friends. The band is like a summer holiday -everybody is anxiously waiting for the rehearsals and concerts. They´re just so much fun, because we can do exactly what we want!"X-Panda lineup:Kaarel Tamra – keyboardsRisto Virkhausen – guitarsTamar Nugis – bass and vocalsKarl-Juhan Laanesaar - drums Main influences for X-Panda are:      Dream Theater, Planet X, Liquid Tension Experiment, Jordan Rudess, Virgil Donati, Gavin Harrison, Simon Phillips, Joe Satriani, Porcupine Tree, Nightwish. X-Panda discography:Flight of Fancy (2011) Track list: 1.
