There is a facebook group "The Bolshoi , the greatest band you never heard of". If you haven't heard of them yet, this will get you chest deep into their work.
They began as "The Bolshoi" in the 80s, releasing an EP "Bigger Giants", the "Friends" then "Lindy's Party". A lost album "Country Life" was released in 2015. Giving songs that were never hits, but easily ones to love on first hearing them, such as "Giants", "Happy Boy", "Please", "TV Man" and my all time fave of theirs "Lindy's Pary".
Trevor Tanner the singer/songwriter has released a large catalog of music over the years, and has regrouped with synth player Paul Clark to give us this new album "The Bolshoi Brothers". This new work comes from the guys who have been making music for the last 30+ years since the band ended, it is traditionally Trevor Tanner lyrics, but the moved on into an early Pink Floyd, and YES prog rock sound.
As a fan of prog rock, hearing this clash of sounds really made this album interesting, and easier to dive into the depths of themes these lyrics want to take you through.
A conversation of a lifetime to talk to such an influential band that steered me through my youth, and still appealing to my adult interests.
