The Haiti Projekt is a 40 song collection (almost 4 hours of music) featuring some of the finest progressive rock artists, including Neal Morse, IZZ, Roine Stolt (Agents of Mercy, Transatlantic, The Flower Kings), Randy George (Ajalon), Dave Meros (Spocks Beard), and a guest appearance by Derek Sherinian (Dream Theater, Planet X) on the Relocator tune. The collection also contains an exclusive solo song from Andy Tillison (The Tangent) written and recorded specifically for this effort.
"The Earthquake in Haiti like all such natural (and un-natural) disasters, arrived on our computer desktops, on radio stations, TV channels and naturally horrified us all. But as with so many of these tragedies, it is easy to let the victims of them run together in our minds - and sometimes those of us lucky enough to have been at the other side of the world when disaster struck, see only refugees and impoverished people and somehow relegate them into this category. Suffice to say that in Haiti that day, people were listening to music, watching the news and browsing the internet. It could so easily be any of us. The music on this album is dedicated to the people of Haiti by some artists who believe in real people. People like us." -Andy Tillison
