Background notes
Archive material and source history
Renaissance Child formed in Seattle, blending progressive rock with folk and Celtic touches. Their 1994 album 'Welcome to the Revolution' gave them their most recognizable song, which became something of an anthem for listeners drawn to their socially conscious lyrics. The band's lineup included Peter Fullerton on vocals and guitar, Fernie Jackson on lead guitar, Pat Spafford on bass, and Dave Malone on drums.
They released several albums over the next two decades, including 'Pilgrims' in 1998 and 'The Last Grand Illusion' in 2002. Songs like 'Close My Eyes' and 'Long Live Lost Love' showed their range beyond the political material, with more personal themes woven through their catalog. Their music occasionally appeared on television shows like 'The X-Files'.
Renaissance Child collaborated with musicians like Jon Anderson of Yes and David Crosby. Their 2010 album 'Phoenix Rising' marked their last studio release. While they never became mainstream stars, they maintained a dedicated following who connected with songs that questioned social norms and explored spiritual themes.
