Prog rock legends Nektar have announced that they will release their latest album, Mission To Mars, through the Deko Entertainment label on June 30.
The upcoming album sees drummer Jay Dittamo make his debut. Jay replaces original founding member and drummer Ron Howden who sadly died in September 2023, aged 78, and joins the current line-up of original members Derek “Mo” Moore (bass) and Mick Brockett (visual environment), Ryche Chlanda (guitars), Kendall Scott (keyboards) and backing vocalist Maryann Castillo.
The album features just four lengthy tracks which, the band say, "covers all of the prog rock bases while venturing into some new melodic territories."
"I would like to announce our one and only gig in Europe and UK so our friends across the pond have a chance to see the band," Moore announced back in February. "Hopefully some of our diehards too."
