Ian Anderson releases "Pretending 2 Run"

TILES guitarist Chris Herin presents Ian Anderson with his very own copy of “Pretending 2 Run”. The legendary Jethro Tull front man makes a guest appearance on the band’s new 2-CD concept album, released April 15th on the Laser’s Edge label.

Herin says: "Ian has been a Tiles fan since we released our third album ‘Presents of Mind’. Over the years we floated the idea of him making a guest appearance and eventually the timing was right. We sent Ian a moody atmospheric tune (Midwinter) and he wove some cool melodies in between vocal phrases; then cuts loose with his trademark flute improvising during the song's long ride out solo. I think I listened to it twenty times to make sure it really happened - what a thrill for us and what a generous gesture from an icon of progressive rock!"

Also featured on “Pretending 2 Run” are Mike & Max Portnoy, Adam Holzman, Mike Stern, Colin Edwin, Kim Mitchell and others. Check out the official videos and trailers here:
