Following on from the success of the In the Grip of Light EP, The Allender Band release their debut album Outer Dark on 16 March, 2009.

Outer Dark continues in a similar vein to In the Grip of Light. The album perfects The Allender Band’s trademark sound of intricate guitar work, spacious arrangements and country-tinged melodic rock.

The deceptively simple, classic sound of ‘Riverrun’ has already enjoyed airplay on Gideon Coe’s BBC 6 Music show, and we’ve made an MP3 of this track available for free download.

The album is available to pre-order from the Dreamboat Records website shop. Orders will ship before the end of February. It will also shortly be available to download from iTunes.

Robin Allender will be performing a solo show at the Electroacoustic Club, London on 10th February with The Gala Band and the Olympic Symphonium.
