EBB were a band, the Erin Bennett band, who played pop-rock. But they kept straying off into Prog Rock and ruining it. So they finally listened to their own voices and went full Prog. You couldn’t get a happier bunch of puppies. Not only that, but they were awarded the best new-comer award at the HRH Prog Awards 2024!
Writing and rehearsing within an arts collective makes impromptu noisy jam sessions a little easier than, perhaps, for those who live with intolerant neighbours, families, dogs and hamsters. The resulting music performance and, these days, video and live actors, is best described as bespoke, rather than pleasingly generic. In other words, one likes it or one doesn’t.
Fun, theatrical and original these ladies (and man) will be sure to entertain you.
The Book of Revelations offer an intoxicating combination of Rock, Orchestral and Folk music with its lyricism, poetry and grandiloquence, convoluted with complex rhythms and quirky time signatures plus lyrical themes from Roman and Greek mythology told with a 21st Century perspective.
The Book of Revelations is the musical vehicle for the multi-instrumentalist and composer, Gerard Freeman, who owes a debt of gratitude to the greatest proponents of Progressive Rock, namely GENESIS. With this magnificent influence and musical education in mind, The Book of Revelations have crafted works of rich texture, complexity and humour and they are proud to follow humbly in the wake of their mighty forebears.
DORIS BRENDEL & LEE DUNHAM – unplugged and acoustic
Doris has worked with some notable artists over the years, including Alvin Lee, Gary Moore, Sam Brown, Joe Brown and Herbie Flowers, and has toured extensively with Marillion as well as Nils Lofgren, John Farnham and Steve Marriott. She was also invited to sing with Pink Floyd on the Great Gig in the Sky tour but had to decline due to already-contracted tour commitments. She recently sang backing vocals on Fish’s acclaimed album ‘Weltschmerz’.
Doris won last year’s HRH Prog Angel Award and guitarist and producer Lee Dunham managed to fall over on stage during the ceremony after copious amounts of wine. Together, the chaotic pair have released 5 studio albums with a newly released Blues album to add to the collection.
As well as playing some shows with their band, Brendel and Dunham have been playing a number of live and unplugged acoustic shows full of stories, fun and great music.
