About Me |

Breathing Space the band started life as a solo album project by Iain Jennings, ex-keyboard wizard and co-songwriter with rock giants, Mostly Autumn. What people are saying about the latest CD 'Coming Up For Air':"Every song has something to catch your interest -- an unusual structure, a stunning guitar solo, a beautiful piano melody, an experimental instrumental section, etc.. The melodies are so strong and the choruses so catchy that you can't stop singing them!" David Meadows"Just brilliant from start to finish" Chris Dove"What a relief to be able to hear a pure vocal performance and to be able to hear all the instruments, instead of crunching guitars and heavy drums. Livvy really does have a beautiful voice, like the pinging of a crystal glass" John"A well presented and well crafted collection of cracking songs" Helen Davies"Iain has done a superb production job; the sound is crystal clear, and the tight arrangements don’t waste a note.This is yet another addition to the growing list of great 2007 albums" Tim Hall What people are saying about Breathing Space LIVE:Iain Jennings, keyboardist, is the main writing force behind Breathing Space and tonight was the launch show for his band’s second album “Coming Up For Air’. Entering to the unrestrained applause of a full house at the Post Office Club, we saw collective who have a very strong fanbase and are quickly building momentum. A full house despite not being a regular name on the regional circuit? Promising. Their first set consisted of back catalogue material and the picture very soon developed: a very tight rock sound, richly layered double keyboard parts, well-textured guitar work with sizeable solos, guest sax and flute and very, very good vocals. Here Olivia Sparnenn is obviously (and deservedly) noted for her confident stage presence and vocal delivery. For a young singer she already has a load of gigging experience and consequently controls her range excellently - the stripped down ‘Rain Song’ showed this well. The decision to play the second set - the new album in its entirety and in the same order as on the CD - underlined their dedication to “Coming Up For Air” being a ‘concept album’. All the music is thematic, orchestral and very involving. I can safely say it’s not a sound for the young hip, cool cats who want to skip along in the fast lane; these Progressive Rock extended tunes are appreciated, as seen live, by a mature audience - listeners with a penchant for Classic Rock. Thus they’re not a dancing band or dancing crowd - but it is so evident, from the response the band received and the demand for encore, these supporters already know some of the material and will follow this band for a very long time. I take my hat off this band who write the style they feel passionately for and don’t give a hoot for a scene or the hype. This is a band with longevity, mark my words. dean saint john, 26 October 2007 A very good friend of the band, and fellow Myspacer, Acomb Dave, has very kindly put a video to the track 'Turn Of The Tide', which appears on our new album 'Coming Up For Air'. We hope you all enjoy it! Lots of love, Dave! Thanks a lot! |
