1) Pendragon are an English progressive rock band established in 1978 in Stroud, Gloucestershire as Zeus Pendragon by guitarist Nick Barrett. The Zeus was dropped before the band started recording.
There were a few personnel changes in the early days, but since 1986 the lineup has remained relatively stable. Long standing drummer “Fudge” Smith being replaced by Joe Crabtree who has subsequently been replaced by Scott Higham who brings high energy along with a huge beaming smile!
The band is still active as of 2011. Their music is characterised by Barrett’s virtuoso guitar playing and his highly emotional, if unique, vocal performances.
On October 1st 2008 the band released the album ‘Pure’ . This album features their heaviest songs as of yet, being influenced by the newer Porcupine Tree.

Always liked Pendragon since I got Fly High Fall Far back in the day.... Got to say though their last couple of Albums have been fantastic ( Pure and Passion) also the Live DVD\CD box set of Concert Maximo is well worth a listen! Was luck enough to catch them on the Passion tour ( first time I have seen these guys live since the Alaska tour...), one of the best gigs I have been too in a fair few years!
