Thirteen songs of an uncompromising razor sharp fusion of acoustic balladry and electric nightmare visions. Blending the electric rawness of early U2 and the moonwalking space sound of The Police with the acoustic dreamlike balladry of Nick Drake; and all set alight with the flaming torch of early 70's Stevie Wonder. Welcome to the blazing madness of an Alternative world of Emo-ballads.2007 promises live outings, playing across Europe and the USA.
The 'Before The Sunrise' album cover was photographed on the English south coast. Chris survived the incoming tide, but almost lost his guitar to the waves. Each and every song on the album written as if set to the soundtrack of a James Bond movie.
