  • Description

    "'Til the Sun Goes Down' from the band's 3rd forthcoming album - Wonderland - is a tale of small-town folk with unfulfilled ambitions. We live a life full of what-ifs and we have those musings expressed in the song: the shadow of missed opportunities is a long one but we all have the chance to take that "path to the stars in the sky" and build a better life." - Alan Hewitt - Musicians Corner.

    "Written by Steve Rezillo, this is very much a lead guitarist's arrangement. Steve is a very fluent guitarist, and here moves from the sort of multi-lead fills I liked from the Eagles to a very effective 60s-70s wah-wah-accented solo (could that tower in the last verse be Jimi Hendrix's Watchtower?) Suddenly I find myself missing the 'cry-baby' I wore out in the 70's." David Harley - Music Journalist.

    Band Members:
    Dik Cadbury - from 70's folk-rock band Decameron, also worked and performed with Steve Hackett and Mike d'Abo from Manfred Mann. Dik plays an important part in the band as one of the main songwriters; he plays bass, acoustic, lead guitar and vocals.

    Mick Candler - began playing drums in local beat groups in his home city of York in the early 60s, prior to working with Roll Movement and then joining Decameron, Phil Beer and Steve Knightly.

    Caley Groves - Aussie-born Caley's guitar talents bring an exotic flavour to the band's offering with his exciting and uplifting 'Gypsy Jazz' licks and acoustic moves: just watch his stunning delivery on the live stage version of 'Wonderland'.

    Steve Rezillo - as well as song-writing duties, contributes a rock element to the band as electric lead guitarist. Gigging since the early 70's - he has supported bands ranging from Thin Lizzy to Aztec Camera - Steve's unbelievable talents on the guitar and in studio are essential to creating the band's authentic Folk-Rock sound.

    Julie July - to say that Julie can inhabit a song is no understatement. Her voice soars high and proud, earning comparisons with Sandy Denny and Annie Haslam.Whether performing ballads or up-tempo rock, whether folk for the 21st century or a new take on prog riffs, her voice frames the band's lyrical content and makes each song a uniquely personalised performance.

    Carol Lee Sampson - a truly talented singer-songwriter who writes beautiful and emotive songs as well as providing keyboards and vocals.Delivering heartfelt and soulful performances that stand on their own as well as complimenting Julie's vocals in a powerful, tight and cohesive unit.
