Jorge Rivera-Herrans, creator and producer of EPIC, a loose musical adaptation of Homer’s The Odyssey recently announced the release date of the fourth EP “The Underworld Saga”. The EP part will be available to stream on all major streaming platforms from april 26th.

The musical, divided in 9 parts, tells the tale of Odysseus’ 20-year journey home through several challenges – being challenged by gods and monsters. The whole saga is made up of 40 songs completely sung-through.

This time, Odysseus and his gang will be going down under and travelling to the Underworld. There they will start their quest to find the prophet Tiresias. This EP will feature at least three new songs serving as the continuation of the story, including “Monster”, already a fan’s favorite, “The Underworld” and “No Longer You”. As a whole, the EP should take a much darker turn. We can only hope for a Hades’ cameo!
