We are pleased to announce a new lineup for the Steam Theory Band.

Jason has joined with Drummer Chris Mack and Bassist Oliver Unger to form the backbone of a new live outfit. 

Shortly after the release of Asunder, the Steam Theory Band went into an extended hiatus and Jason began work on new material.

After some time, he began working with former Oblivion Sun and Iluvatar drummer Chris Mack. The plan was to take their time and find some new players for a new lineup for the group. After a long period of auditions they invited Bassist Oliver Unger to the group.

Currently the group is working as a Trio and rehearsing several cuts from Asunder as well as a few from prior albums all in anticipation of playing out in the Baltimore/D.C. region Spring of 2018. 

In the meantime, Jason is working on material for two new Steam Theory albums, and hopes to have one released for Spring of 2018.

Steam Theory is pleased to announce the January 19th release date for Asunder, its most ambitious recording to date. Composed, performed and recorded by Jason Denkevitz, the album combines Orchestral, Progressive Rock, Metal, and Jazz Fusion musical styles. Available as a double cd digipak from Bandcamp and  Cdbaby.com, Asunder is also available as a digital release from Bandcamp, Cdbaby.com, iTunes, Amazon-Mp3, Spotify, Rhapsody, Google Music Store, and other online music services beginning January 19th, 2015.

The album represents a different direction from 2012's Helios Rider album, with a focus on larger arrangements incorporating heavy use of orchestral instrumentation, often in lieu of traditional keyboard parts. Attempting to fuse several genres together, the goal was to maintain a priority on strong themes and melodies. Employing heavily syncopated drumming, electric and acoustic guitars, fretted and fretless bass, rhodes keyboard and orchestral string and horn arrangements, the album includes 13 songs totaling over 85 minutes of music.
