Post Description

Studio Album, released in 2009, United Kingdom.

Prog Folk project van Francis Lickerish [The Enid].

Formed more than twenty years after departing another band he formed (The ENID), Francis Lickerish is back with another talented assemblage of musicians with classic and folk roots, fertile imaginations and an abundance of mature talent.

SECRET GREEN has hit the ground running with the well-formed studio release 'To Wake the King' and a live show lineup that features both original material as well as Enid standards. The band's melodic, sometimes medieval instrumental arrangements as well as the angelic vocals of Hilary Palmer make for a rich musical experience.
