Following the roots of masters of progressive music like Genesis, Yes, Jethro Tull, King Krimson, Led Zeppelin and taking inspiration from modern progressive/alternative bands like Pain of Salvation, Riverside and Porcupine Tree, Dropshard attempt to create its own music with two EPs – DSI (2008) and DSII (2009) – clearly reflecting the mood and the energy that moves the band.

In 2010, after reaching a stable formation, Dropshard plays in several events like the Exprog in Mogliano Veneto – among with illustrious names like Marillion, Tony Levin ‘Stick Men’ and Le Orme – gaining attention and winning several competitions – like the Woodstock MetalRace 2010.

In the meantime the band starts writing new music and lyrics: it’s time for spread its music to the world!

Following the exciting – and unexpected – success and the excellent feedback from public and critic about the first full-lenght album "ANYWHERE BUT HOME", in May 2011 the band is hosted by the Electric Garden Festival in Blackpool (UK), a three-day event entirely devoted to progressive music, gaining great success.
