Territorial Chant began as it were in 1981 at Milford High School under the name "Nexus". After 6 years and a few more name changes, Territorial Chant finally became the permanent name of the band. There have been quite a few solo outings and projects along the way but it always seems to come back to the core of Schellenberg-Compeau-Mastick as the main creative engine behind Territorial Chant. Drawing from influences through the years including: Kansas,Yes,Emerson/Lake'and Palmer,Jethro Tull,Gentle Giant,King Crimson and Genesis, Dream Theater, we have managed to keep a unique sound with subtle nods in the direction of our favorite Artists.
