Culminating a dream that began 45 years ago, the Council of Thirteen proudly releases their debut album “In Between The Dark and The Light”.
The brainchild of keyboardist, vocalist, bassist and songwriter John W. Edwards, has its formations in songs that John started writing in 1979 while studying Physics and Mathematics at the University of Arizona in Tucson. During that fall he put together a band that was called Starfyre. Starfyre never got off the ground and John finished his MS in Systems Engineering and went on to a career in Aerospace Engineering with such companies as Rockwell International, Texas Instruments and Allied-Signal. In the mid-1990s, John had the dream of starting a record label and soon thereafter, Renaissance Records was born. Formed and operating in Nashville between 1995 and 2001, he relocated the label back to Arizona, where it has been ever since.
Therefore, The Council of Thirteen was born by combining the talents of 13 other musicians and singers with John’s songs and some great covers of other classic rock artists’ tunes. The full package of 48 tracks presented on 2 CDs gives a little something for everyone from power rock ballads to 70s pop songs, to 80s rock and new wave tunes and some great contemporary rock performances.
"Lights of the Stage" is the second album featuring 24 new songs, including 5 classic covers. The third album "Find A Way Tonight" is being released in March and features 20 all new songs. All three albums are available through Renaissance Records (www.renaissancerecordsus.com)
