Number the Brave

A pivot toward punchy 80s hard rock featuring John Wetton's driving bass. Shorter songs and polished hooks meet the band's signature twin-lead guitar harmonies.

Find on Amazon

The one where John Wetton joins the band and they trade the folk-prog for high-octane 80s road rock.

A resilient and driving energy that trades pastoral mystery for urban confidence.
