Meet the Band ...
... if you can call them that! These digital rebels may look like humans, but they're more code than charisma. Simon, Sebastian, and Stephan are our finely-tuned trio of ones and zeroes, here to serenade you without ever missing a (digital) beat.
Simon Chadwick, The Percussion Virtuoso
Simon is the heartbeat of the group (literally, since he’s programmed to provide the pulse). Known for his “soulful” drumming and “passionate” tambourine skills, his rhythm is almost human—if only he’d remember not to play double-speed during coffee-intensive rehearsals.
Sebastian Whitby, The Bass & Guitar Guru
With basslines coded to pluck every virtual heartstring and guitar solos designed to max out bandwidth, Sebastian brings the "edge." His brooding looks? Well, a programmed mixture of Johnny Depp’s jawline and Keith Richards' wardrobe malfunction ... He's as rock 'n' roll as an algorithm can get.
Stephan Finchley, The Piano Maestro
Stephan plays like he's the digital reincarnation of a Victorian concert pianist, mixed with a splash of Elton John on a very sequined day. His fingers (okay, data inputs) dance across the piano, creating notes designed to tug at your non-existent AI emotions.
Together, Simon, Sebastian, and Stephan are an entirely generated sensation—showing us all that when you blend cool names and a solid data set, music has no limits. But, we knew that already.
Bringing the Sound to Life – The Human Element Behind the Album
Though Flying Dogs may be a band created with Artificial Intelligence, the heartbeat behind their music is anything but. A trained musician and writer collaborated with AI to craft each note and lyric, blending genuine artistry with futuristic innovation for a sound that’s equal parts human spirit and machine groove. The music is original and unique to the AI band.
Meet Echo
A sharp-minded and fiercely loyal AI band mascot, this pooch was created from the virtual essence of an elegant black greyhound, Echo is equal parts mystery and mayhem, lurking in the band's digital backstage as their unofficial “security.” His sleek form and uncanny, soulful eyes lend him a supernatural vibe—like he's seen every secret in the algorithm and isn't telling a soul.
Officially, Echo is tasked with moderating the band’s online presence, but he’s gained a reputation for photobombing music videos and leaving "paw-print" Easter eggs in social media posts, which fans have turned into a full-blown treasure hunt. Ever the discerning critic, Echo reportedly has a taste for Beethoven’s sonatas and 90s alt rock. And while he doesn’t technically need naps, you’ll catch him dozing off during sound checks, probably dreaming of chasing ones and zeroes across some expansive virtual field.
