Description/Reviews: 

The album has a varied and wide range of influences from Rush, Toto, Marillion, The Enid, Prefab Sprout, Tears For Fears and Scritti Politti. The album concept is mainly based around a slightly eccentric manic depressive writer/journalist who succumbs to mental illness, his unorthodox style and questioning the truth causing his marriage break up and a life alone wandering the streets until he finds peace by the coast. Other themes intermingle, related to relationship failures.

Andy Faulkner (Jump, Twelfth Night) - bass
Dave Mackintosh - drums

Description/Reviews: 

From the very first line the tone of Sleepless is set. It is an hour of rock delight featuring soaring, melodic, and powerful vocals of Agnieszka and her writing talents. Her lyrical content dissects the fine line between darkness and light, life and death, solitude and hope, and combines them with crunchy guitars, ethereal orchestration and alluring vocals. The juxtaposition between the elaborate keyboard overtones and beautiful arrangement for strings hitting a brick wall of heavy guitars, driving drums and bombastic bass lines is the foundation in the overall construction of the album. The songs Agnieska delivers have individual style familiar to fans who loved her for her She performance.

Description/Reviews: 

Elder Creek explores the concept of memory, its loss and the part it plays in our lives, the lives of loved ones and society in general. Using both anecdotal and mythological subject matter, the album raises the question; if memories define who we are, then who indeed are we without them. Many lyrics were based on poems written by Jeff’s father.
