   About solstice
Check this out friends!! http://blogs.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=blog.view&friendId=161259750&blogId=495347023.............................................................. ALL SOLSTICE STUDIO MATERIAL NOW AVAILABLE ON DIGITAL DOWNLOAD/OR BUY AT http://www.progrock.co.uk - including new 2-disc 'def edition' re-masters of Silent Dance, New Life and Circles........................................... -Formed in 1980, when Blondie, the Specials, Joe Jackson and the Police were heading the charts, a folk-tinged prog. rock outfit like Solstice should not have stood a chance. Soaring guitar, fiddle and Denny-esque vocals were not at the top of A&R's most wanted list, but audiences felt otherwise. Extensive university tours and sell out nights at London's Marquee club, a front page of Sounds(unheard of for an unsigned band) and the expectations of a prog. rock revival led to appearances at Reading Rock and Glastonbury festivals and sessions for Radio 1's Friday Night Rockshow. Solstice made many appearances at free festivals incuding Stonehenge, their anti- commercial stance and mistrust of the music industry making sure they remained unsigned. One album later, guitarist Andy Glass was otherwise engaged-both as concert engineer for Jethro Tull and guitarist for Bill Withers. When the album "Silent Dance" was re-issued, Glass reformed the band with Jethro Tulls drummer Clive Bunker and went on to record two further albums," New Life" and "Circles". Promotional dates were a great success and included Cropredy Festival-which was recorded and filmed as a live CD and is now available as a DVD. Solstice are now recording again and setting up gigs for 2007. The current line-up incudes award winning producer and drummer for Page and Plant, Pete Hemsley. Pete played on "New Life" and has an ambient album on Sony, " The Lords Garden", which includes re-mixes of Solstice tracks that have been used on soundtracks worldwide.
