Featuring two members of the Boston pop/punkers Bad Fogelberg, WHY ENGLAND SLEPT follows a different musical path entirely, featuring elements of post-rock, jazz, new age and prog. From the breezy cheer of "Gimme Some Brighton!" and the title track, to the melancholy of "Maplecroft" and sheer creepiness of "Pictures of an Exhumation," the project paints a broad palette of intriguing moods and soundscapes, and a second album - with an emphasis on guitar - will follow next year!

Imagine Vince Guaraldi of "Charlie Brown Christmas" fame jamming with Pink Floyd at Radiohead's practice space. That's what we hope WHY ENGLAND SLEPT sounds like on our all-instrumental debut album, "House of Pizza." Featured are two members of Boston rockers Bad Fogelberg - Don Hammontree on keys, guitar and bass; and Eric Roebuck on drums.
