Voyager

Powerhouse progressive metal band Voyager has been pushing boundaries since its inception. Formed in Perth, Australia in 1999, the band came together around the visionary talents of lead vocalist and keyboardist Daniel Estrin and quickly established themselves as a force to be reckoned with in the progressive metal scene. The band's debut album, Element V, released in 2003, garnered an international following, with the album distributed in Europe and Japan as well as Australia. Throughout their journey, Voyager has experienced a dynamic line-up, with the talents of notable musicians like Emanuel Rudnicki (guitar, 2001-2005), Jennah Graieg (bass, 2002-2004), Geoff Callaghan (drums, 2003-2005), and Melissa Fiocco (bass, 2004-2007) sharing the stage. Their second album, Univers in 2007, saw the addition of Simone Dow on guitar and Mark Boeijen on drums, with the band continuing to captivate audiences with their third album, I Am the Revolution in 2009, which introduced bassist Alex Canion to the Voyager family. The band's artistic evolution reached new heights with The Meaning of I in 2011, as guitarist Scott Kay joined the fold, injecting fresh energy and creativity into the group. With each album, Voyager has deftly blended their progressive metal roots with elements of alternative rock, electronic and pop, with 2013 and 2017 releases V and Ghost Mile showcasing their maturity as songwriters and the ability to craft diverse and powerful anthems. Voyager's talent and dedication to their craft caught the attention of Season of Mist, a label known for supporting boundary-pushing artists, further solidifying Voyager's position as a formidable force in the progressive metal landscape. Invited to perform at popular club indigo at the O2 in London during their European tour in 2018, Voyager left audiences in awe with their electrifying performances, unveiling their seventh studio album, Colours in the Sun in the following year, which received both commercial and critical acclaim. With the Eurovision Song Contest in their sights, the band participated in the Australian pre-selection twice with "Runaway" in 2020, as well as "Dreamer" in 2022, finishing second to Sheldon Riley. In 2023, Voyager's unwavering dedication paid off as they were internally selected to represent Australia at the 67th Eurovision Song Contest in Liverpool. With their powerful and energetic entry, "Promise," the band won the second semi-final, securing 9th place at the grand final. The song debuted at number 3 on the Australian Independent charts, and continued to chart across Europe and the United Kingdom, landing in 7th place in both Sweden and UK, ahead of their highly anticipated 2023 release Fearless in Love.
