Robert Svilpa is a guitarist, keyboardist, singer and songwriter from the U.S. In 2005, he joined with keyboardist and vocalist Paul Harrington and bassist Mark Parris - the latter two going under the band name Paraesthesia - to release his first album "The Sound of Thoughts". Svilpa has a wide variety of influences, including bands from the prog genre such as PINK FLOYD, KING CRIMSON, RUSH and GENESIS, as well as newer prog artists such as PORCUPINE TREE, DREAM THEATER, and SPOCK'S BEARD. He also has several influences outside of the prog realm, including alternative artists such as REM and MATTHEW SWEET and folk artists such as JAMES TAYLOR and CSNY. 

In 2009, Robert and band released his second album, this time under the name Robert Svilpa and Paraesthesia, called "A Fine Line Between...", a sequel to his first CD. Svilpa is currently working on recording cover versions of some of the songs which influenced him, from prog artists, alternative artists and others. Among these is a cover version of "Watcher of the Skies". He also plans an electronic CD with Paul Harrington, as well as a third CD completing the trilogy begun with "The Sound of Thoughts".
