The Flying Caravan, on the other hand, presents an EP named “Stage Access” with two new songs so as to present their new singer and new keyboard player who complete the quintet of Alicante (Spain).
The first of the themes is a symbolic handover from their former vocalist Izaga Plata, who sings a duet with Julia Novecento, the current singer of the band.

The Flying Caravan was born in the mind of Antonio Valiente, a musician based in Alicante (Spain). Antonio focuses on the idea of developing his own compositions with references in Progressive Rock and Classic Rock.
The band’s first album entitled “I Just Wanna Break Even” is recorded at the Faculty of Fine Arts of the UMH in Altea (Alicante) and is released on CD in 2021 by Paella Records. In 2023 it is re-released by the Italian label Wormholedeath.
The band records two new tracks for an EP entitled “Stage Access” during the month of November 2022 at Peak Studios in Alicante. Once again the band counts with the work of the great illustrator Mario Domínguez for the cover.
SomeWhereOut is the personal project of guitarist and composer Raúl Lupiáñez from Málaga, with which he explores his musical interests based on Progressive Rock, Metal, Post-Rock, academic music and more.
He has a long list of collaborators, including singers John Serrano, Alba Bermejo, Dante Martín of Neptunia and Abraham Linares of 41 Ravens, among others.
To date, he has released two studio albums (Eternity, Infinity in 2019 and Deep in the Old Forest in 2021), a single (The End of Winter in 2020) and two EPs (More Tales from the Old Forest in 2022 and What If…? in 2023) in which the influences of groups and artists such as Genesis, Alan Parsons Project, Porcupine Tree, Steven Wilson, Opeth, Riverside, Marillion and Rush can be appreciated.
