Post Description

Band voornamelijk bekend geworden door het Gentle Giant Tribute album "Giant for an hour" uit 2005, waar ze met " Convergir" mee tributeerde. De muziek is folky (fado, 't is nml Portugees), jazzy en symfonisch. Af en toe Renaissance/Illusion achtig, maar door de jazz invloeden uiteraard ook GG, er wordt in het Portugees gezongen. Een vermakelijk, doch geen onmisbaar album. Leuk voor de heb.
