Another Sky

Another Sky is an English progressive rock band formed in London with their debut show in 2017 by Catrin Vincent, Max Doohan, Naomi Le Dune, and Jack Gilbert while they were all studying music. Vincent's unique singing voice is often mentioned in reviews, including for their released their debut album, I Slept On the Floor, in 2020. They have followed that up with an EP, Music For Winter Vol. I, in 2021. History Began forming in 2014 while the founding members of the band (Catrin Vincent, Jack Gilbert, Max Doohan, and Naomi Le Dune) were studying music at Goldsmiths, University of London. The band members had a diverse selection of musical taste: heavy grunge, drum jams, James Taylor, and Tracy Chapman; so much so that frontwoman Catrin Vincent said "I think that's why the music often comes out confused". Their shared interest in a Talk Talk album, Laughing Stock, helped them get together as a band after they all "discovered [it] around the same time. We ended up getting in a room, jammed together and wrote a song straightaway". In 2016, before naming their band, they wrote an unreleased song named "Another Sky" after Emily Dickinson's poem s:There is another sky and named their band after that song because it "made complete sense; when we make music together, we feel like we're somewhere different". Early performances include supporting experimental artist, Ghostpoet, alongside singer-songwriter, Rosie Lowe and playing the BBC Introducing stage at Bestival. Their first public performance was at London's St Pancras Old Church in 2017. For that performance and later ones, they performed in total darkness and then sometimes backlit with custom built lights, in attempt to remain anonymous. By early 2019, they had started performing more conventionally.
