Solstice
Voted Best Band in Prog magazine’s latest annual Prog Awards, after a 40-plus year career, Solstice has boasted the same line-up since 2020 and are led by band founder, composer and guitarist (winner of Prog magazine’s most recent Best Guitarist Prog Award) Andy Glass.
The members of the Milton Keynes band channel their impressive individual talents to create music that melds elements of hi-intensity prog-folk, soaring new age, fragile ambience, fresh funky pop-rock with world music leanings, and fist-pumping heavy rock jubilance, demonstrating a sophisticated, multifaceted modernity while retaining transcendent timeless qualities.
