THE MERI
PROGSTERS
Multi-instrumentalist/composer
Uku Meri has created plenty of progressive rock music that didn't
make its way into band projects, and band projects that otherwise did
not make it to the public, and other band-sounding material looking for
placement.
The Meri Progsters are compilations of material that sound
like a band, even if Uku Meri is doing all or most of it himself.
[Note:
Visit the merimusic.com web site for
Uku Meri's synthesizer and/or keyboard oriented music.]
Uku Meri has played percussion since age 3 or 4, electronic organ
since age 5, bass guitar and synthesizers since age 15, and guitar and
drums shortly thereafter. He has been in rock bands playing any or any
combination of these instruments.
Chronologically, important bands he was involved with were "Euphoria"
(1978-1979) (his last gigging "cover band"), "Accolade" (1979-1983), "MLK"
(Meri, Lucey & Klaastad) (1977-1985), "Human Sushi" (1984-1988), "Access
to Strangers" (1985-1988, 2010- ), and "The
Creatures of Habit" (1988-1996, 2006- ). There were many minor
projects along the way, and countless jams with all sorts of musicians -
some of them famous nowadays.
The first official "Meri Progsters" release is
"Human Sushi" - featuring many of his vocal
(lyric) compositions with the Human Sushi band, along with other
compositions of that era. The second release "Rock Syn the Head" is
instrumental music, featuring keyboards with electronic drums and
rhythmic loops.
