732.0. "October Project" by GENRAL::FERRIS () Thu Sep 21 1995 13:09

    
    
     About a year ago I bought a disk by October Project. I have really
    enjoyed it ever since. To my knowledge they have no other ones out.
    Anyone know about other works from them or if a new one is on the
    way?

     Nobody that I know is in the band, none of the names even rings a
    bell. In my base note I tried to think of a way to describe their
    music, and drew a blank. Lets see, all the vocals are done by the two
    women in the group. The band appears to be about a seven piece group,
    guitars, keyboards, drums etc, no horns. Their style seems very folk
    oriented and at times very Celtic sounding (Enyaish). It is a unique
    sounding group, I highly recomend it. Check it out sometime if there
    is a place that will let you listen before you buy.

    In a mail I got from a Listserver recently, someone mentioned 'October
    Project' and that they'd done two very good albums. I know this doesn't
    help much, but there's definitely another album out there somewhere !

    They have a new one out this week called "Falling Farther In." So far,
    I don't like it half as much as their first.
    
    They'll be at the Paradise in Boston on October 7.

     Thanks for the info Tom. I'm sure I'll pick it up. What it it that you
    don't like about it?

     I picked up the new one on Saturday, thanks to the info here. It has
    a different feel to some of the songs but still a great disk. I'm sure
    I'll get as many hours of enjoyment from this one as I did the first
    one!
