Formed in 2020 by longtime friends who share a passion for music, Tarmat was created during the pandemic. In this delicate context, the musicians took advantage of the time available during social isolation to start a new authorial project. Every song was composed and produced from their homes. Also, their music goes from soft to hard rock, influenced by artists such as Journey, Boston, Europe, Simply Red, Christopher Cross and Queen. These musicians have been together for quite a long time and took part in previous musical endeavors, such as Driving Force, G.R.A.Z.E., a Whitesnake cover band, and Anxtron, which happened to be the opening band for national and international bands such as Marillion. The band is getting ready to release their debut album next month, with eight original tracks, produced and recorded by the band in their home studios and at Estúdio Omega, in Niterói, RJ. Mixed and co-produced by Eduardo Belchior, from Intense Music Producions, Sweden. Mastered by Swedish artist Ronny Milianowicz, who is also a drummer in the band ShadowQuest, and has worked with bands such as Angra, Kreator, Hammerfall, BloodBound, Paradise Lost, among others. Tarmat makes high quality music blending AOR and different melodic rock styles with a current sprinkle of poetic lyrics full of sentiment. “Gabriel and Eduardo used to make the arrangements at their homes and sent me their recordings so I could get the vibe of the songs and write the melodies and lyrics, which popped up together; it was almost psychographic. The lyrics have a very personal signature. Through them, I open my chest talking a lot about my life and everything around me. If it wasn't for the pandemic, I don't think we would have come this far. It all started without any great expectations, but the outcome turned out to be so interesting that we decided to release it”, explains Alexandre Daumerie, vocalist and composer. "We’ve been long surfing nostalgic waves. Ever since I started in music, when I was about 15 years, I had always wanted to be successful with my projects. And now with this original work, my wish is that it gets widely spread. We want to leave our message all over the world, and we hope everyone enjoys it", explains Alexandre Daumerie.
