Looking back at Ryche ' s career, one would think there would be enough for a great book. Ryche doesn ' t agree. After some health scares and complete recovery, his phoenix is ready to �y- or more appropriately, add one more chapter, entitled“ Flying Dreams”.
Flying Dreams at its core is Ryche Chlanda, RON BIENSTOCK and KENDALL SCOTT. Their self-titled LP is due to be released by early summer by THE ORCHARD division of SONY music, and they look to be touring shortly around that time. The music is very reminiscent of GENESIS, PINK FLOYD and KING CRIMSON, with the pop sensibility of BOSTON. I recently sat at down with Ryche and Ron Bienstock to discuss Flying Dreams, music gear, their future, and getting“ disconnected”.
JP: WHAT’ S BEEN UP WITH FLYING DREAMS SINCE WE LAST SPOKE.
Flying Dreams was in the stratosphere both in support of the new LP and the mapping out the �ight plan for the second LP. We were grounded temporarily by a serious internal infection that Ryche developed. That ailment landed him in the hospital for 30 days. Clearly not what anyone would have anticipated – but things happen. Ryche has recovered fully, is playing and writing better than ever and the band will be out supporting the new LP for the rest of 2017.
JP: TELL US A LITTLE ABOUT THE NEW SONG DISCONNECTED.
This last year and for the foreseeable future, has seen such a pronounced disconnect with people – both in terms of what they believe or accept as real and what they see and hear. That disconnection is the basis of the new LP’ s �rst track. We have begun to accept what we see as information on our phones from sources we have never seen or heard of before- and we are told“ this is real”. The consequences as to all of our lives, all around the world, are unparalleled in our history. The more we feel we are connected by the internet( look at our slavish devotion to these small portable devices), the more the actual disconnection from reality and personal relationships we have allowed to take place. Music brings connection- it brings people together, it can be such a positive in�uential force in our lives. That is the focus of the new track for the second LP.
