Formas Artist Bio

1. Formas is an alternative prog-rock act which began in Santiago, Chile in 2009 when Sebastián (drums), Nicolás (bass) and Gonzalo (guitar) from the band Teoría IV met Santiago (vocals) to start a new project.

Influenced by acts such as Karnivool, Kaddisfly, Pain of Salvation and A Perfect Circle they started creating songs which eventually became an album, and in between the lyrical concept of “A Greater Sight” begun to unfold. Very close to recording in 2010, for reasons of force majeure, the story of Formas was paused for long four years.

Recorded in August of 2015 in Estudio del Sur (Maria Pinto, Chile) by Claudio Ramirez (Inti Illimani, Tryo, Mi Concepto de Color) and Maximiliano Chavez, mixed by Sebastian Ponce and mastered by Chalo Gonzalez (Weichafe, We are the Grand, Chancho en Piedra).

“A Greater Sight” was released on November 1st 2016. It’s an 8-track long concept album about the process of change from the epiphany through doubt, fear, acceptance, detachment and finally departing your steps in a new direction.
