TRANSATLANTIC Reunites For New Studio Album

PROGRESSIVE ROCK SUPERGROUP REUNITES FOR NEW STUDIO ALBUM. POSSIBLE LATE
2009 RELEASE PLANNED.

TRANSATLANTIC, the progressive rock "supergroup" comprised of Mike Portnoy
(Dream Theater), Pete Trewavas (Marillion), Roine Stolt (The Flower Kings)
and Neal Morse (ex-Spock's Beard), have reunited after a 7 year hiatus to
begin work on a brand new studio album.

The band began work on the album in early April in Nashville and are
expected to have it released by year's end if all goes as planned.

TRANSATLANTIC have previously released two studio albums to tremendous
critical and fan acclaim: 2000's SMPTe and 2001's Bridge Across Forever. The
band toured on the heels of each release with an American Tour in 2000 and a
European Tour in 2001 and released subsequent Live DVD's/CD's from both
tours before going their separate ways for an indefinite hiatus which lasted
almost the entire decade.
