“That holy dream - that holy dream, While all the world were chiding, Hath cheered me as a lovely beam A lonely spirit guiding.”
Edgar Allan Poe – A Dream
A Dream of Poe is a solo Project by Miguel Santos, a well known musician and producer in the Azorean islands.
Started in 2005, it was in October 2006 that A Dream of Poe releases his first work. Delirium Tremens was the name chosen for the first work of A Dream of Poe. With two songs and one cover this first work had great reviews through Europe.
Only at 2007, it’s with the first edition of the festival “October Loud” (organized by Miguel Santos and a friend) that A Dream of Poe had his first opportunity to play live. For this opportunity A Dream of Poe had the help of several Azorean musicians.
At November 18th 2008 was released as a free download the Live CD For a Glance of the Lost Lenore recorded at the festival “October Loud 2008”. At the same time it was uploaded to Youtube.com the videos of the live performance at the festival “October Loud”.
Still in 2008, A Dream of Poe takes part of the tribute CD Echoes of a Morbid Death to the Azorean Metal Band Morbid Death with the song Gentle Whisper. For the international tribute Mires of Sorrow to My Dying Bride, A Dream of Poe recorded the song For My Fallen Angel.
The year of 2009 was entirely dedicated to the studio work. Due to many reasons the second studio work that had the release date to 2007 has suffered several delays. Two years after the original release date, at October 7th 2009, the EP Sorrow For The Lost Lenore was released. This work featured three original songs and two covers, Gentle Whisper and For My Fallen Angel. The EP was made available through internet as a free download. Six months after the release, Sorrow For The Lost Lenore was downloaded more than 1000 times!
Playing since 2005 and after one demo, one Live CD and one EP, A Dream of Poe releases a new EP, Lady of Shalott, that is a preview for his upcoming Album, The Mirror of Deliverance, to be released in February 2011.
Recorded between January and December 2010, the fourth studio work, The Mirror of Deliverance, will be released in February 25th. The Mirror of Deliverance features the new vocalist, João Melo, who gives voice to the new work. João is a very dynamic vocalist and we can hear his great melancholic voice and also his deep growl that makes this Album a new step for A Dream of Poe. This Album will be released through ARX Prod. and comes in an amazing digipack with the Artwork done by Augusto Peixoto.
