Information
Nick D'Virgilio is an American drummer and singer, also known as "NDV". Perhaps best known as a member of the progressive rock band Spock's Beard, D'Virgilio took over lead vocals in 2002 and has since recorded three studio CDs:
Feel Euphoria,
Octane, and the self titled
Spock's Beard. In addition, they have released the live CD
Gluttons For Punishment" and the newly released live DVD 
Spock�s Beard Live. He was also one of two drummers chosen to replace Phil Collins in Genesis on the
Calling All Stations album. While living outside of LA, he continues to do sessions and tours with many artists including Tears for Fears, Kevin Gilbert, Jonatha Brooke, Eric Burdon, Mike Keneally, and Fates Warning.
A Nashville-based recording engineer/producer and a Los Angeles-based performer have teamed up to create a unique twist on a classic Genesis album. This fall, Nick D'Virgilio of Spock's Beard fame and engineer/producer Mark Hornsby re-recorded the Genesis classic
The Lamb Lies Down On Broadway, in its entirety. Produced at Java Jive Studio in Nashville, the album features some of Music City�s best musicians, taking the songs in a whole new direction.
"We wanted to see what would happen if we exposed the songs to a different climate of musicians," says D'Virgilio, "The early Genesis recordings are so musical and very bluesy when you get right down to it. They really lend themselves to some different interpretations."
Although all of the original elements of the songs are still included such as drums, bass, guitar and piano, the recordings now take on a more "theatrical" vibe. This, coupled with orchestra, rock guitars, and some fantastic horn arrangements, the songs now enter an entirely different place.
