It’s All About Persistence – An Interview With Strange Advance
By Keith Sharp
Global TV news invited us to be involved in a piece on the impact of COVID on the music scene, which we know has been devastating. Drivers, roadies, technicians, concession clerks, ticket takers, janitors, merch people, agents, managers, musicians, theatre owners, promoters, sound and lighting people, the list goes on...all unemployed for 6 months to 2 years. 2020, not my favourite year.

On a positive note, Strange Advance has put out a new CD (remember those?). We were going through the archives and located so many hidden gems including songs that were meant for our next record. So 30 years later, we have released Strange Advance 4! Newer songs & vintage songs - remixed & remastered. So happy that they'll now see the light of day.
