Following their debut release 2021's 'Fragments', the trio of bassist extraordinaire Nick Beggs (Kajagoogoo / Steven Wilson), gifted jazz keyboardist Adam Holzman (Grover Washington / Steven Wilson) & rhythmic powerhouse Craig Blundell, return to deliver their signature brand of instrumental Prog come Funk or Prunk / Frog if you were to be so bold.

For listeners seeking to escape the confines of the normal world, 'The New Normal' will enable a window into vistas in a multitude of wacky tracks both in sonics & in concept.

Combining elements of Progressive Rock, Jazz Fusion all with a dash of typical English wit, the band bring the listener into a world where sound is malleable, time is a mere concept & vegetables have otherworldly properties like the 'Stroboscopic Fennel'.

Joining the trio of masterful musos is Alex Lifeson (Envy Of None / Rush) for additional guitar on 'Once Around The Sun With You' & Theo Travis (Steven Wilson) on saxophone for insectoid grooves of 'Daddy Long Legs'. Alongside John Paul Jones' very chapman stick from 1979 that was sent to Nick & used to record 'The New Normal'.

The album was recorded in the Bermuda Triangle of normality that is Leighton Buzzard, Bedford & New York between 2019 & 2023.

'The New Normal' was engineered by the band & mastered by Andy VanDette (Beastie Boys / Rush / Whitney Houston), adorned with artwork that was inspired by an original idea from Hajo Muller.
