Earlier this year (2025), Solstice continued its burgeoning renaissance with the release of its 8th studio album. “Clann” was received to great acclaim by the international press and in particular the esteemed Prog Magazine, whose readers voted Solstice ‘Best Band’ of 2024. The band took this exceptional album on tour to headline gigs and festivals and their following has grown stratospherically.
Riding on the back of the now sold out “Return To Cropredy” live record, Solstice releases this new live collection from the “Clann” tour, recorded from their sellout show on home turf at The Stables Milton Keynes on 30 August 2025. Increasing the usual line-up by five, this gig included the uber-talented Theo Travis (Soft Machine, Gong, The Tangent and a multitude of collaborations including the likes of Porcupine Tree and Steven Wilson) and was augmented by the “Glass Brass” making this show a truly family affair for band leader Andy Glass.

Whist this recording showcases “Clann” in a live setting, it includes vintage crowd favourites such as “Earthsong” and “Cheyenne” from the band’s 1984 debut album “Silent Dance” (remastered in Autumn 2025), “Mount Ephraim” from 2023’s “Light Up” and “A New Day” from 2022’s “Sia.”
This is another essential live album which beautifully complements the “Return To Cropredy” live release. Modern day Solstice: bringing more joy to fans, old and new.
