SAPPHIRE EYES is a band rising from the ashes of ALYSON AVENUE and SECOND HEAT.
The idea of SAPPHIRE EYES were born when Niclas decided to write and record a new album. The first idea was to pick a female vox for a projectrecording. After some rehearsals with the girls the decision for a male vocals came to mind.
Thomas Bursell did the vocals on the one and only SECOND HEAT album, released in 2004, and did great.
Bassplayer, Thomas Löyskä, and Niclas have been playing together on both ALYSON AVENUE albums and SECOND HEAT and couldn..t be apart on this one either. Now there were three members and the idea of a "real" band were getting closer.
Tony Rohtla and Fredrik Eriksson were asked to join. Both played together with Thomas Löyskä and Niclas Olsson in ALYSON AVENUE in the middle of the 90..s and suited perfect. It was important to put together a band that would work both musically and socially.
At this moment SAPPHIRE EYES is down due to ALYSON AVENUE.
ALYSON AVENUE is working hard for the third release.

Thanks for the add and giving us a chance! We are six hard working, passionate, down-to-earth, crazy guys creating the music that we love! Free Spirit is a hardworking and equally hard playing rock band hailing from Finland.Our music offers strong musicianship, soulful vocals and the essence of the great acts from the rock scene. Undercurrents of Celtic and folk music blend seamlessly with powerful guitars, souring harmonies and melodies that will get stuck in your head for days at a time; a wound healed only by listening to more and more, quenching the thirst of a Free Spirit hit.
