Ian Dench was clearly having a blast, talking about learning to play and how performing in The 100 Club was a dream come true for him given he was on the same stage that The Sex Pistols had played on and it was them, back in the 1970s that inspired him to play.

Their ability to combine old blues with modern rock has taking them on several tours across Europe, and even North America, and has caught the attention of artists like blues legend Joe Bonamassa calling ’VOL.II’ on of the best albums of 2018 and even inviting the band to perform on his annual cruise festival.
Departed, The Fallen State, with Liberty Lies – live O2 Academy 2, Islington, London, March 8 2017
A true highlight and a track I hope remains in the band’s set for years to come is ‘Steal Your Crown’. It’s the sort of song that should grab the attention of radio stations and see it added to playlists worldwide.
