New interview with the band:
I liked Sia quite a lot so I'm looking forward to hearing more of the new album. Any know of a digital source? Cheers all.
Got this for my birthday last week. Superb album - really beautiful. Recommend it to all. Everyone should have a copy.
I just got it last week and it is very good.
Ordered from Laser's Edge but it was out of stock.
Here's a new interview with Andy

Recently posted, an interview with Jess from 2021.
Wonder if they are planning a vinyl release? Or maybe I already missed it.
I saw Solstice last weekend at a progfestival. I was more there to hang out with some friends than that I was interested in the bands but I have to say Solstice pleasantly surprised me.
I knew Solstice from the album Silent dance from 1984 which I had on tape as a teen so I was surprised to see that they were still going. They certainly seemed they were enjoying themselves on stage. Sometimes they sound folky, sometimes jazzy, funky or poppy but never too pompous or over the top. The (quite young) female singer has good voice and had an enthusiastic stage presence. The guitarist was great (although he suffered from some technical problems) The new songs actually sounded like the better ones in the set list. Overall a good enjoyable show, much better than any of the other bands playing that night.
The band have been recording some new videos to promote light up, here's the first 'Wongle no.9'
