'Where Do We Go?' raises existential questions about the meaning of life, the impact of our choices on others, and the uncertainty of what lies beyond. Musically, it reflects the band’s creative signature: a dynamic, heavy brand of progressive rock influenced by Anathema, Vola, and Steven Wilson. The track was produced by Germán Vergara (Aisles) and mastered by Steve Kitch (The Pineapple Thief).
 
“This was one of the first songs we had ready right after our previous EP Who We Are (2024) was released,” explains singer and multi-instrumentalist Ani Gillen. “It touches on mental health and the struggles of someone battling to find a reason to keep going while holding on to their sanity.”
 
This single sets the beginning of a series of releases leading up to Argovia’s new album, expected in 2026. It follows their acclaimed EP Who We Are, included in the Best EP of 2024 category by specialized prog outlet Nación Progresiva, cementing their status as rising stars in the region.

Founded in 2013 by multi-instrumentalist Ani Gillén (guitars, drums, bass, vocals) and keyboardist/music producer Carlos Arminio, Argovia are a progressive rock band from Bogotá, Colombia. Hailed as one of the most promising acts in Latin American prog, they are poised to make their mark on the international scene.

The band released their debut EP Lost Letters (2014), which earned them a nomination for EP of the Year at the Unión Rock Show awards. Three years later came their first full-length album Distant Present (2017), mastered by Tony Lindgren (Fascination Street Studios, Opeth, Leprous, Katatonia, and more). The record led them to tour several Colombian cities, including Cali and Medellín, and secured their participation in Prog in Motion 2017, the country’s only progressive rock festival.

In 2024, they released the EP Who We Are, which was mixed by Alejandro Londoño (Cultura Tres, Delain, Sepultura), mastered by Steve Kitch (The Pineapple Thief), and featuring drums by Felipe Candia (Aisles). With this release, the band moved away from symphonic and digital sounds, embracing a heavier, rawer, and more mature style, drawing inspiration from Riverside, The Gathering, VOLA, Steven Wilson, and Karnivool. The EP earned them an invitation to open for Norwegian band Circus Maximus during their Bogotá show in September 2024. In addition, vocalist Ani Gillén participated in the choral recording of the song 'Faceless' for Leprous, included in their album Melodies of Atonement.

The current lineup features Ani Gillén, Carlos Arminio, Mauricio Sanabria (drums), and Nicolás Paredes (bass).
