Provision
Profile: Provision was founded in November 2000 by Breye 7x (Formerly of U-N-I and Bamboo Crisis) and Leslie Hyman (Formerly of U-N-I and Wraith). With 10 years of experience in former electronic acts under their belt, Leslie and Breye chose to infuse elements of classic electronic dance (Hi-NRG, Italo Disco), industrial dance (EBM) and synthpop to create the Provision sound. Provision shows combine live synthesizers and electronic percussion, non-stop energy, an incredible intelligent lighting show, and powerful vocals with lyrics that tug at the heart. At barely over a year old, Provision performed at Synthcon 2002 where they won "Best New U.S. Artist" in the American Synthpop Awards; thus solidifying their name and sound in the American Synthpop Scene. Provision's relentless self promotion and performances during their Liberation (Regional) and Evaporate U.S. Tours, quickly gained the attention of Electronic Record Labels in the U.S. and abroad; and they proudly signed with U.S. Label A Different Drum in late 2003. In their first 2 years of existence, Provision was performing numerous live shows with incredible energy and frequency; and quickly winning new fans wherever they toured. From 2001 to 2006 Provision released 3 albums, 4 E.P.'s, appeared on numerous compilations; and produced remixes for other electronic artists. During this 5 year time period, Provision toured the U.S. for the albums Evaporate and Visualize. Provision toured regionaly in support of their Innocence and Devotion E.P.'s; and has always continued to support other electronic artists on tour in the U.S. Provision has established themselves as a popular support act in the U.S. electronic music scene having shared the stage with Red Flag, Anything Box, The Human League, When In Rome, Cause & Effect, Imperative Reaction, Icon of Coil, System Syn, Assemblage 23, Cesium_137, The Hunger, Christopher Anton (Information Society), The Cruxshadows, and CTRL among others... Provision has also performed live at many electronic music festivals during this time including Gothcon II, Synthcon 2002, ADD2K4, ADD2K5, ADD2K6, SiNthetik Sk13s II, III & IV, Electro-Nexus, Summer Synthpop Festival 2003, Synthfest 2004, and appeared as a vendor for A Different Drum at Convergence 10 in Chicago, IL. 2010 sees the return of Provision with veteran members Breye 7x and Jen Kiser being joined by Matt Willis (Splendor Projekt). Provision entered their studio Red Square Digital in Houston, Texas on August 25th 2010 to begin recording their upcoming 4th album "Paradigm Shift" which is set for worldwide release on 11-1-2010 Sounds Like: With 10 years of experience in former electronic acts under their belt, Leslie and Breye chose to infuse elements of classic electronic dance (Hi-NRG, Italo Disco), industrial dance (EBM) and synthpop; to create what can only be called "The Provision Sound". Truly a unique formula of their own.
