In a nutshell.... You will Love this album if you were ever into Pink Floyd, Genesis, Marillion , Deep Purple , Led Zep , Supertramp, Peter Gabriel, and influences from numerous English and American 70âs and 80âs classic rock bands ... But this is NO COPY ! ... We have worked for seven years making sure we have the right tracks, The album has an environmental theme and there are so many facets to it that you'll keep on coming back for more ,We have written about issues that are affecting the world today but we arenât here to preach or be moralistic, we are here to entertain, with searing guitar breaks, haunting melodies, atmospheric pianos, harmonies, counter-melodies and lyrics to provoke thought and to inspire disc if you wish ! ... we also have a
back catalogue of singles and e.p's via our website too... presumedinnocent.co.ukâ¦..Thanks for dropping in , and we hope to be in touch with you soon ... Ady, Clive and Martin.(Presumed Innocent )

Where did it all start ?
From a chance meeting in 1999, Ady Ellis ( A guitarist with no lyrics ) and Martin Nash ( A lyricist with no guitarist ! ) became great friends over a bottle of Jack Daniels whilst discussing , music, art and poetry.
The combined skills of the new friends very quickly bore a wonderous fruit. Classic songs appeared as if by magic , everything was dropping into place !
With so many different influences the pair would go on to produce a wide variation in styles , from the extremely powerful Blackmore-inspired rock song to the Morrissey-driven lyrically-emotional ballad via Ady's classically driven guitar work through to Martin's sometimes surreal lyrics.
The original duo produced well over a hundred songs in various home recording setups before the valuable addition of Clive Haynes , another guitarist with keyboard and midi-programming experience . Martin and Clive had known each other since teenage years and were in a band together in the 80's. Pretty soon It was to be seen Clive's true value as the songs became more and more cultured , now there were three great friends delivering great music in their new , purpose-built recording studio in St. James , Northampton, Englandâ¦And this is where this album was conceived, written and produced using a mixture of digital and analogue equipment to add that extra warmth that digital alone cannot create.All the album artwork was produced by Martin Nash in his art studio also in Northampton. This is the first album but it wonât stop there , the second album is well under way with some intuitive material in progress with a slightly more aggressive rock edge⦠Not a diversion for us , more a development of ideas⦠Watch this space we arenât finished here !
