    More accurately, Belew is joining Copeland's band which has been around for a couple years now:

They asked me a while back to contribute guitar and maybe some vocals. recently they asked Mark King to join in on bass and vocals as well. It is not a “supergroup” and there are no plans beyond making this record.

    Unless there's a different drummer named "Stuart" Copeland?

    That's Dave Fiuczinski on guitar. Which are some pretty big shoes to fill.

    Good god what a lineup. Copleland and King and Belew...copeland is so effing good! That video kills!!
    Look at the hall, it looks about empty
    I saw his quartet at Post University in NYC, and the place was small, and it wasn't sold out, unreal...

    I like them too!

    Although they aren't Canterbury, they did play a Caravan-cover and performed with Hugh Hopper.

    Copeland is such a marvelous drummer. I bet this will be interesting.

    I sure like the name of the project!

    Very impressive video. Can't really picture where Belew is going to fit into this, but I'm sure I'll be pleasantly surprised.

    Thanks for that, I was unaware of it. Last I knew, Dave Radford had some health problems.

    (Sorry for the thread diversion.)
