Years before forming The Alice Island Band, Keith Hughes, Roger Moore and Tim Phillips formed The Conqueroos blues band and subsequent projects like Cinderella's Party Song Book in 1967.
By 1974, Keith, Tim and Roger were ready for something special, and the arrival of Cinny - the ‘Princess’ from the principality of Wales - completed the line up for the next LP.
They became The Alice Island Band and recorded Splendid Isolation - Tim, Keith and Cinny played, Roger produced and recorded the 14 songs, some of which had been conceived back in 1968.
For those into the UK folk and psych scenes who love the homemade recordings of Peter Howell and John Ferdinando's projects (Tomorrow Come Someday, Alice Through The Looking Glass, Agincourt, Ithaca...), or those impossibly rare folk albums cut through the Deroy Sound Services – but also for lovers of good crafted songs with male and female vocals and mostly acoustic performances.
