Caspian perd son bassiste Chris Friedrich!

Une nouvelle fois la nouvelle s'apprend par le social network, hier soir sur la page facebook de Caspian, les fans lisaient:
"Dear Friends,

We write to you today with heavy hearts and indescribable sadness to tell you that our bass player, Chris Friedrich, died unexpectedly Sunday afternoon. We have lost a close friend, a true brother, and a presence that can never be replaced in any of our lives. Chris epitomized the heart and soul of Caspian, and in our own ways -- both individually and collectively -- dedicate ourselves to honoring his memory. We ask for privacy. Thank you for your thoughts and prayers during this difficult time.

We will be paying tribute this Saturday (8/31) to Chris by performing at The Engine Room in Manchester, NH. This is a benefit show for a friend of Chris's who is seeking funding for a lung transplant. Chris was instrumental in putting this show together, and is the only way we know how to honor his memory at this time. You can find more information in our events section for this performance.

We love you all so very much. "

Le bassiste avait à peine 33 ans! 
C'est en 2003 que Caspian  (  Beverly, Massachusetts) voit le jour.
 Philip Jamieson (guitars, keyboards, samples), Calvin Joss (guitar, glockenspiel), Chris Friedrich (bass), et depuis 2007 -- Erin Burke-Morgan (drums) (qui remplace Joe Vickers) se lancent dans une aventure postrock et très vite peuvent assurer l'avant-programme de Mono.
Discographie: trois full cd's ( 'The Four Trees,  Tertia et Waking Season) et quelques ep's.
