Chandelier biography
 Some people believe CHANDELIER is the German response to Fish's MARILLION, while others believe it's a clone band, I don't agree with either of this positions because they released their first album in 1990 so it was to late to a be a response to FISH era, being that he had already left the band; and with the second option even more, because despite the similarities between both bands and specially in the vocals of FISH and Martin Eden, Chandelier has also a strong influence of ARAGON, SAGA, early IQ and several other Neo Prog bands.

The band managed to keep the same lineup from the first to the last album, formed by Martin Eden in vocals, Udo Lang (guitars), Stephan Scholz (Bass), Tobias Budnowski (Keyboards) and Tom Jarzina on the drums.

Their first album "Pure" (1990), was self released and was accepted by the German Prog community, for their second album "facing Gravity" (1992), they signed with "Inside Out Records" who released the album.

In 1997 the release their third and last album Timecode, which is a radical change in style being much more closer to SAGA than to any other band with a touch of mainstream.

If you are a MARILLION fan and you are able to accept a guy singing like Fish but with a strong German accent, then this is your band, not revolutionary or original but a very solid band that I enjoy to listen once in a while.
