Unitopia
Encyclopedia
Unitopia is an Australia
n music group using progressive rock
as a framework, but also including elements of world
, classical, jazz
, heavy rock, and groove.
The album was independently launched in October 2005 to a sell out audience at The Cavern Club, Adelaide. Further live work followed in Australia, including supporting Daryl Braithwaite
and playing the Norwood Food and Wine Festival. In March 2006, Canadian label Unicorn Records re-released More Than a Dream internationally.
Wishing a consistent team both live and in the studio, Trueack and Timms recruited Adelaide instrumentalists Matt Williams (guitar/vocals), Monty Ruggiero (drums), Shireen Khemlani (bass) and Tim Irrgang (percussion) to complete the Unitopia line-up. Trueack and Timms then started writing in earnest new material for their next album, The Garden. In February 2008, Unitopia signed a worldwide publishing deal with Shock Music Publishing. In July 2008, the track "Lives Go Round" from More Than a Dream was included on the CPR Volume 3 compilation CD. In August 2008, Unitopia signed a 3 album deal with InsideOut Music
.
On November 18, 2008, InsideOut Music released Unitopia's second CD, The Garden, internationally, a double CD with 15 tracks and over 100 minutes of music. According to Review Busters "This double disc release is defiantly one for the ages. Unitopia offers a unique blend of progressive rock with some symphonic parts that are incredible. If you never heard of this band then you will want to pick up everything they have to offer, The Garden is a non stop ride into a progressive sound that is easy on the ears, yet at the same time it offers everything you would have ever wanted from a progressive release."
Unitopia are currently in the studio writing and demoing tracks for their 3rd album ‘Artificial’. They have also been booked to play at RosFest in May 2010, one of North America’s largest progressive rock festivals and Summer's End Festival, a premier progressive rock festival in England.
Shireen Khemlani and Mike Stewart left in 2009 but the band was joined by Shaun Duncan on fretless and fretted bass, and Peter Raidel on saxophone.
Also at that time, he pursued his passion for performing by re-creating a Genesis tribute show, 'The Genesis Touch'. Highly regarded nationally, the group consistently played to packed houses, but unfortunately had to disband due to Mark's interstate employment.
While living in Sydney, Mark began his song writing career with local producer, Matt Coxhead, penning two fine songs, ‘Time For Change’ and ‘This Life’. Returning to Adelaide in 1996, Mark was introduced to Sean Timms by a mutual friend, who noticed the similarities in their musical tastes and personality. After a night on the town & a few beers, the two began a song writing partnership that continues to this day.
The first of these songs was an early version of ‘Take Good Care’. Soon realising that the songs they were writing had commercial potential they continued to write together whenever possible.
Not having a vehicle for his larger than life on-stage persona (He stands at a very modest 6’6” in the old scale) Mark convinced Sean that playing live was the best way to fine-tune & promote their music. They recruited the very best musicians available and proceeded to form the rest of the live line-up that is Unitopia.
Since the formation of the band, Mark has also had several other opportunities to perform, most notably the John Lennon memorial concert on the anniversary of his death in late 2005. Although still working as an executive, Mark hopes to one day make music his full time occupation as it is already his full time passion.
He is married to his wife of 25 years Cheryl, and they have two talented daughters, Holly (who has a cameo appearance on Justify) and Brittany.
As co-founder of Unitopia, Mark is an integral part of the process, not only as a world class vocalist, innovative songwriter, constantly creative co-producer and morale booster, but as a relentless driving force behind everything that Unitopia has achieved thus far. The passion he injects into his music is endless (as is his sense of humour!) and his knowledge of the music industry and record companies in particular has given Unitopia a wealth of knowledge from which to draw, making the journey forward an exciting and potentially lucrative one.
Timms started on piano at 10 and developed an interest in keyboards and synthesizers after his father bought him a copy of Rick Wakeman
's Journey to the Centre of the Earth
LP when he was 14. At 16 he bought his first synthesizer. He joined a band with some of his school mates and proceeded to make an income from doing cabaret work.
By his early 20’s, Sean was in demand as a first call session player. Able to play in any style, his classical technique, finely tuned ear and multi keyboard setup enabled him to rise to the top of his chosen field. During this time he gigged up to 6 nights a week and studied jazz at Adelaide College where he met Monty Ruggiero. A chance meeting with a local producer introduced Sean to the wonders of the recording studio. Starting as a first call session player, he quickly became an in-house arranger, composer & programmer.
In 1989, Trueack was asked to perform with Ross Wilson
to promote his Dark Side of the Man album. This subsequently led to a stint in Mondo Rock, performing their latest release "Why Fight It" and their back catalogue. A highlight was the live televised event, Oz Music 90 at the Sydney Entertainment Centre performing to 19,000 people on the same bill as Crowded House & Kate Ceberano.
Partnering with another post production studio in ’95, he spent 4 years developing his skills composing for the advertising industry. During this time he met Mark Trueack.
Not getting enough satisfaction from a joint venture, Sean decided to open his own facility, naming it Timms Tunes. This quickly became the go-to place for top quality advertising and film music. During this time Sean scored the music to 2 feature films. In 1999, Timms Tunes relocated to a character laden former church building.
Timms continues to compose for many national and international clients such as Bakers Delight, Mitsubishi, Mazda, BMW, Home Hardware and Wendy's. He also works as a composer for Disney and has scored music for film projects including The Book Keeper and Gargoyle, two highly awarded animated films produced by Anifex.
In April 2007, Sean married Amanda. They were expecting their first child in November 2009.
In his early 20’s Matt toured with popular original band Fire ‘n’ Ice around Australia and the United States which helped develop a strong on stage persona as well as honing his already virtuosic soloing technique.
Now living back in Adelaide Matt is an incredibly in demand session guitarist and engineer/producer who manages the ever increasing client base at Fat Trax Recording Studios.
Matt feels that Unitopia is the perfect vehicle for both the playing and song writing sides of his personality. The intricate passages interwoven with strong harmonic, rhythmic and melodic content, keep the ever nimble fingers and mind of Matt Williams occupied to an extent never realised until now.
His guitar playing, coupled with an astoundingly strong singing voice and irreverent sense of humour, makes Matt an invaluable member of Unitopia.
He also plays around Adelaide with a Joe Satriani tribute show that has to be seen and heard to be believed and the very successful local rock outfit Fighter Pilot!
To quote one of his favourite t-shirt, he really is a ‘Rock ‘n ‘Roll Mother%$&*#$@*!!!
In 1996 he moved to Melbourne to further his career and worked as a freelance musician for the next 8 years before returning to Adelaide in 2004.
While in Melbourne, he performed with international jazz greats John Clayton, Jon Gordon and Paul Bollenback as well as Australian luminaries such as Pseudo Echo, Vanetta Fields, Joe Camilleri and Deni Hines to name a few.
He has appeared on numerous television shows, musical theatre stages and has toured nationally and internationally with many of the above mentioned artists.
Jamie is a rare breed of drummer in that he has a quietly introspective and humble demeanor when interacting with other people which totally disappears as soon as he sits behind his drum kit.
As well as being an incredibly forceful and talented drummer, Jamie also plays piano, guitar, sings and writes his own original music. I guess the old joke about a drummer being a person who hangs around musicians doesn’t apply to Mr. Jones!
Having performed and recorded with a who’s who of the Australian music and theatre industry has given Jamie an incredible maturity and sensitivity when he plays. This became evident during his audition for Unitopia when Shireen came to life and played better than we’d ever heard her play…and that’s really saying something!
There was an instant chemistry between Jamie and the whole band making the tough job of selecting our new drummer a lot easier!
His fave drummers are Gadd, Steve Jordan, Jeff Porcaro, Dave Weckl and Vinnie Colaiuta. He likes listening to John Mayer, Sting, James Taylor, Donny Hathaway, Stevie Wonder, Jill Scott, Ben Folds Five, Peter Gabriel, The Police, The Dixie Chicks, Simple Minds, AC\DC, Miles Davis, Chick Corea, Herbie Hancock, David Sanborn, Tower of Power, Huey Lewis and the News to name a few.
He enjoys eating Thai food and his favourite actor is Kevin Spacey. To relax, Jamie chants and meditates and is interested in consciousness research and yoga. He plays Yamaha Recording Custom Drums and Zildjian Cymbals and his favourite quote is, “An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind” - Gandhi.
While at University, Tim & fellow students formed a quartet called The Rhythm Works. They played at the 98 Fringe Festival, performed live on radio and TV, were actively involved in the ASME National Conference in 2001, and are currently part of the Musica Viva in Schools programme. In 2006 they toured Australia and Singapore.
In December 1999 Tim travelled to South Africa with the Australian Aboriginal Jazz Connection – Warkala, to perform at WOMAD – Living Treasures Festival in Durban, as well as The Standard Bank Jazz Festival in Mamelodi & also performances in Pretoria and Johannesburg. The tour also included performances with some of the local artists.
As part of the Hormingo Ensemble, Tim was involved in the Elder Conservatorium Evening and Lunchtime Concert series, Sunday Salon at the Festival Theatre and the Bundaleer Forest Music Festival. They were the first group to be part of the Musica Viva, Menage Series. In 2001 they travelled to Malaysia with state trade delegates to provide entertainment for official functions held in Kuala Lumpur and Penang.
Tim has played with The Adelaide Symphony Orchestra as part of the Adelaide Festival of the Arts with their Symphony Under the Stars in 04. Further work followed, including The Australian Ballet, The Zep Boys ‘Led Zeppelin Tribute’ and The ASO’s Masters Series. He continues to work with the orchestra on a casual basis.
Tim has also had the opportunity to perform with The South Australian Police Band, Etype jazz, Lucifer’s Lounge, Cathie Renner, J.C. Jazz, The Australian Girls Choir, Orianthi, Boogiemen, Flat on your Bacherach, Akhter Jahan, and Rataque. Events include the Glenelg Jazz Festival, Adelaide Fringe, Cabaret & Arts Festivals, Bundaleer Forest Music Festival, Come Out Festival, Tour Down Under, Tasting Australia, and WOMADelaide. In 2005 Tim was adjudicator for percussion competitions at the National Band Championships, and performed for Cirque Du Soleil ‘Quidam’ for the majority of the Adelaide season.
Tim’s current performing commitments are with Unitopia, The Liars Bench, Fig Jam, The Bob Johnson Big Band, TWIT (Thompson, Whitney, Irrgang Trio), and The Rhythm Works.
Tim also tutors privately at some of Adelaide’s leading colleges, and has also been employed by Adelaide University to tutor in the Diploma of Education (percussion workshops) and CASM (Centre for Aboriginal Studies in Music).

Mark Trueack
Having a unique voice, rich in character and tone has helped singer/songwriter Mark Trueack (Truey to his friends) to realise a life-long dream of a career in the music industry. From the mid 80's to early 90's, Mark worked on the other side of the industry gaining valuable insight & knowledge as a record company executive for EMI Music.Also at that time, he pursued his passion for performing by re-creating a Genesis tribute show, 'The Genesis Touch'. Highly regarded nationally, the group consistently played to packed houses, but unfortunately had to disband due to Mark's interstate employment.
While living in Sydney, Mark began his song writing career with local producer, Matt Coxhead, penning two fine songs, ‘Time For Change’ and ‘This Life’.
