Live Revelations showcases songs from both Impermanence and Blazing Revelations, performed in the grand surroundings of Birmingham's Symphony Hall. Our live renditions differ from the studio versions in terms of arrangement, and these variations were implemented both for logistical and creative reasons. This album is a warts-and-all statement of what you can expect from my band and me in the live arena; we don't play with a click, we don't play with backing tracks and there are no added frills. This is what was captured on the day, and in that respect, it is honest old-school progressive rock at its most ugly, twisted and uncompromising. I hope you enjoy!

Dominic Sanderson released his sophomore album entitled ‘Blazing Revelations’ on the 28th February 2025. Dominic made quite a stir in the progressive rock world with his first album ‘Impermanence’ which was released in 2023. The album received great critical acclaim and he was voted #8 Best new artist in the 2023 Prog Magazine readers poll. Dominic’s second album ‘Blazing Revelations’ was recorded and mixed in an abandoned radio station over a period of 10 months in 2024. A labour of love for Dominic and his band, the album showcases an eclectic array of styles, from symphonic Prog to Canterbury-esque excursions and acid folk. The album is available NOW from Dominic’s Bandcamp on CD, vinyl and digital formats.

Artwork and lyrics by Matthew Sanderson
A musically conceptual album rooted in the traditional progressive rock sound of the 70s with a modern edge. Recorded, mixed and mastered independently, a great number of excellent musicians have given up their time to help craft my compositions and make this album what it is.
“The young musician’s debut could be the start of something big...Dominic Sanderson has proggy talent in spades.”
– Prog Magazine
“Recurring motifs flow from dreamy passages to emotional outbursts and back. They are romantic, sometimes gloomy, then terrifying. As far as we are concerned, this student has passed his exam.” – IO Pages
“Impermanence is quite possibly the best truly progressive release I’ve heard in many a year...he takes his influences and blends them into something distinctive, unique and utterly brilliant.”
– Progradar
“Yet again his talent shines through, showing a wide range of instrumental and vocal skills...His compositions stand comfortably next to contemporary and vintage prog music.”
– At The Barrier
“A wonderfully nostalgic affair that sounds fresh and exciting despite its rather old idols in sound.”
– The Progspace
