Armahda

Armahda formed in the mid-1990s with Andy Cato, Craig Silcox, Dave Lyon, and Mark Delany. Their debut album 'Balance 003' came out in 1998 and included the track 'Flags In The Wind,' which became their most recognizable song.

They followed with albums like 'Northern Lights' and 'Red,' working in electronic territory that sometimes drew criticism from both sides of the genre fence. Their sound touched on trance and ambient elements without settling into one category.

Songs like 'The Iron Duke' and 'Last Farewell' show the band's preference for melodic, atmospheric arrangements. They kept recording through the early 2000s, though their lineup and activity became less public over time.
