“Ivory Tower Project's music video: "Ring Around Rosie" has been nominated for 'Video of the Year' in the 2019 Josie Music Awards.”

“I stumbled across the band called Ivory Tower Project – Mark Regula and the band really sparked a small fire in my brain after hearing the amazing Rock & Roll album called “HOW MUCH MORE?” I was utterly amazed and in musical awe...”

““Ivory Tower Project … keeps the candle burning for the Power Rock icons of the past (like Queen & Foreigner) by staying true to melodies… instrumentation… vocal harmonies and messages in the music. Each track on (‘How Much More?’) gives us the Ying and Yang that the listening audience craves daily – a perfect balance of music, passion, drive, and melody; and illustrates that there is a place for Classic Rock in this Millennium.””

“An ambitious rock album with overtones of the classic period of the 1970s and 1980s… this is as close to major label quality as an area release ever gets.”

“The title track ‘How Much More?’ is a classic AOR/Pomp Rock song that could well be lifted from a late 1970s/early 1980s record…Fans of acts like: Styx, Zon, Trillion, Thrills, Air Raid, Roadmaster, REO Speedwagon and such will absolutely love this record, which has quite a lot highlights… The Kansas/Styx ‘ish lengthy epic: ‘The Ides of March (Et tu Brute)’, ‘Burning’, ‘Please Tell Me’ and the catchy Survivor ‘ish pure AOR tune: ‘Way Too Late’ (still my favorite Ivory Tower Project ever)… The guitar work is sensational in classic early 80s style and so we can highly recommend this release to anyone who wants to go back in time and hear catchy hooks and memorable choruses like the AOR/Pomp Rock bands in the USA.”

"This band ROCKS. No, I mean they really ROCK! ... The passion in the music & the words (and the) blend of music from the 70’s & 80’s to make that great “real” sound. This album was even better than the first one...Go buy this album today. I rate this 5 out of 5 Music Guru Stars."

““(‘How Much More?’) is a fantastic synopsis of emotions you will experience in your lifetime, regardless of your age, gender, beliefs, etc… it literally has something for everyone... the mix of genres keeps this album fresh and interesting regardless of what music you are into…Their music really could be the soundtrack to anyone's life with a funky little twist, that only they can do.””

“The Ivory Tower Project is a true labour of musical love… working on and off on these songs since their debut album ‘Red Hot’ was released in 2008. As the band name suggests they have a love of all things pomp rock citing bands such as Styx, Queen, Foreigner and Boston as major musical influences…It is an interesting mix as ‘The Ides Of March (Et Tu Brute)’ sounds like 70′s Queen… Those Boston influences shine through on ‘Ring Around Rosie’, more in the vocals than the Tom Scholz guitar orchestrations, although this song features a suitably gran guitar solo.”

“The songs burst with stirring vocal melodies, soaring vocal harmonies, polished musicianship, heartfelt lyrics, and imaginative arrangements…The title track ('How Much More?') unfolds from a boldly vulnerable piano ballad with smoldering emotionality to an anthemic climax with burly classic rock guitars… 'The Ides of March (Et tu Brute)' ITP manages to create their own niche of Shakespearian rock through melding classic texts with classic rock in the grand theatrical tradition of Queen.”

“The hit record that should have been”… "There is no set in stone formula that ITP follows; they make use of the wide range of colors and styles to create songs that embody the best elements of the the 70s and 80s, and they do it very well.”

“(ITP’s) shared love for the music of Styx, Queen, Foreigner or Boston has helped shape this album; ‘How Much More?’…The title track, that starts life as an emotive piano ballad accompanied by crying guitar lines. But it does not take that long before those Melodic Rock references are coming to the fore...Next is the Shakespearean tragedy made into a rock song: ‘The Ides Of March (Et tu Brute?)’. It is also nice to hear the band infuse some prog keyboard influences into their songs…Personal highlights for me are ‘Burning (Full Length Remix) ’, ‘Way To Late (Full Length Remix)’ and the beautiful ballad ’Always’… With 14 tracks and a playing time of almost 70 minutes, there is a lot to offer.”

“As far as albums having a genuine message behind the music, look no further because Ivory Tower Project’s: 'How Much More?' has it covered and then some...the 14 compositions emit a retro vibe complete with expertly crafted intros, instrumental solos and vocal work, while a tightly percussive bass and drum battery holds everything together. But this is just the beginning of a deeply, heartfelt story...”

"Ivory Tower Project’s style is a throwback to the expansive sound of bands like Styx and Kansas. The band recently released their album 'How Much More?', which is textured rock without the formulaic hooks. This is the kind of layered music meant for listening. And Tony Novarro gives us some killer guitar riffs..."

“The supple voice of Keyboarder/Vocalist Mark Regula reminds one of Jeff Cannata and belongs to the best new voices that I heard in the last few months...”

“(ITP's) latest recording 'How Much More?' really is a tour de force encompassing a variety of music styles around a core theme of Classic American AOR...At times you are listening to a reinvention of classic American Rock before being taken on a journey back to the days of extended 12" remixes or an adventure through inspired guitar solos that shout out 'Prog Rock!'...an album that is a credit to their talent and creativity. ELOBF recommends and endorses 'Ivory Tower Project' to all music fans who enjoy the music of: ELO; The Move; The Beatles and related artistes out there in the ELOBF universe!”

" Listening to this album immediately brings to mind such classic melodic rock bands as Journey, gobs of Survivor, and yes, even a little bit of Axe. If the mention of those bands gets your salivary glands to start working then read on, because what Ivory Tower Project does with their influences places this disc handsomely right next door...Cool melodies and a driving beat make this one a winner"

"How Much More?" ~ The title track from the forthcoming album opens with a piano accompanied by a dreamy guitar which leads to the vocals that build up the track before it ramps up with a 70s/80s classic pop/rock feel that ties in beautifully with the lyrics. "How Much More?" is certainly a track that has been well produced with love for the sound that fans of ITP have come to love over the years that they have been producing some brilliant tracks. This track is certainly one that opens up the albums and sets you up for the rest of the tracks to enjoy.

“If you like your rock with a strong dose of the whole 80's vibe, check them out.”

"Red Hot" single handedly seeks to revive the pop/rock supergroup sound with a nostalgia that fans of the 80’s will love. Simply this is great New Music for those who love the sound of Classic Rock.

“ITP is a very well talented outfit that keeps the flame of late seventies / early eighties Rock alive and kicking, above all they bring on some variation blend it all with slices of Pop Rock or AOR.”
