Try 'Zander and the Peace Pirates'. Supported Bon Jovi last year and having met them they are thoroughly nice blokes.

Were in line to play Glasto this year but we know how that ended.

worth a looksie just to see how well the lead doesnt let his disablement affect his playing.



One to look out for!

A friend of mine gave me a crash course in early 1970s prog rock at the beginning of the lockdown. All the bands he mentioned would probably be suitable for this thread. Caravan. Wally.

I've settled for Premiata Forneria Marconi (or PFM for short ). Most of their stuff is in Italian but not this one.

Accordo dei Contrari are another Italian prog band worth a listen.

A band which I cannot recommend highly enough is The Future Kings of England. It's prog but with eerie undertones.

"Things had started becoming increasingly desperate at Loftus Road but QPR have been handed a massive lifeline and the place has absolutely erupted. it's carnage. It's bedlam. It's 1-1."

Saw these in Dublin back in 2014.

The 7' high dancing polar bear was disconcerting.

My favourite Belgian Band, Deus. Truly amazing and incredibly innovative post Beefheart music. Really found them so hard to define, but always unique. Started off as punk with added fiddles and then just evolved into something entirely new with each album.

Lesser-known Chicago band who've been making unbelievably cool, clean melodies for over twenty years now.

If you like The Floyd try Porcupine Tree:

Produced by Tom Freezer full of Greens.

Who also produced Spirit of Eden by Talk bloody Talk.

A similar vein in a different body.
