Deluge Grander is a progressive rock group from the Baltimore/DC area in the U.S.
Dan Britton: keyboards mostly, occasional guitars and vocals
Dave Berggren: guitars
Patrick Gaffney: drums
Brett d'Anon: bass
Frank d'Anon: lots of other instruments and instrument provision
The
group sprung from the ashes of the Baltimore progressive fusion group
Cerebus Effect. After the third Cerebus Effect album "Acts of
Deception," Dan Britton, who had been working on some new material,
suggested to drummer Patrick Gaffney that they try to form a new group
to record and possibly perform the material. Eventually, guitarist
Dave Berggren joined in and made some valuable contributions of his
own. With the acquisition of Brett d'Anon on bass, the group was
complete. Brett's uncle Frank, an accomplished multi-instrumentalist
in his own right and militant pigeon rights advocate, also sat in on
some session and added a few parts of his own.
The first Deluge Grander album is "August in the Urals," which was released in September 2006.
The second Deluge Grander album will probably be called "The Form of the Good" and be released in late 2008.
