Webster's definition of "ivory tower" is: a figurative place of mental withdrawal from reality. The phrase is used as a symbol of escapism.
Independent recording artists: Ivory Tower Project is a new breed of 'old school' rockers. New music for those who love the sound of Classic Rock and Power Pop. Ivory Tower Project (ITP) was founded by NY veteran songwriters: Johnny Jace and Mark Regula.
NYC guitarist: Tony Novarro was soon recruited, thus Novarro and Regula formed the core of ITP. As band members left, they were replaced by the NY Metro area's finest studio musicians that transcended Ivory Tower from being a band into a Project.
Featured Studio Musicians:
Richie Cannata: sax - (formerly with BILLY JOEL)
Ivan Elias: bass - (formerly with PATTY SMYTH & SCANDAL)
ITP signed with Guerrilla Records and released a four-song EP entitled: "Red Hot," which has received rave reviews and airplay on over 340 radio stations in 28 countries worldwide.
Now Guerrilla Records is happy to announce the re-release of “RED HOT” as a 10 track CD album. The album will include the 4 tracks that was on the original EP, but it will also include an additional 5 tracks that have been recorded and written by the original band members. This release has been professionally mastered and duplicated with new front and back cover art and musician credits in the liner notes.
A special track has been included of a solo recording of the group’s original drummer: Sal DiAngelo – who died a few months after the band's first recording session. Also to be included is a candid radio interview with the group’s co-founder: Mark Regula. These 2 tracks are only available on the CD and will not be available on the digital album for download.

Thanks to melodic.net, where I read the review about this great piece of music!
This CD is like a little timemachine which takes you back on a journey to the Eighties.
The first four songs are just pure AOR heaven, brilliant stuff. The rest doesn\'t hold the same fantastic level, but still good stuff, all in all a big recommendation!
I hope to hear more from the band in the future!
BUY!

Ivory Tower Project
author: Juha
Mark Regula (vocals, keyboards, guitars), Tony Navarro (guitars) and Fernando Menendez (drums) are back with Ivory Tower Project and this is their debut full-length album. They released a 4-track EP in 2001and what they offer is 80s Pomp/AOR that takes you back when bands like Cannata, Asia, Arrows, Bystander and Russ Ballard was played in the stereo. Yes, the 4 first tracks on Red Hot is stunning Pomp/AOR songs that really shows how good this band is. The songs don’t hold the same quality throughout the whole album and that’s a shame because this could have been a classic album. There’s also a Radio interview were Mark tells about Ivory Tower Project. But lets talk about the fantastic tracks that starts this album. My Name is a pure Pomp-rocker with classic 80s keyboards and reminds of Stonebolt meets Cannata, brilliant song with great drum sound. Burning could have come from one of Russ Ballards two first classic AOR album. Yes, this is a awesome songs with a fantastic chorus with classy harmonies.
