Do any of you remember a band called Twelfth Night by any chance?
I'm thinking 70s & maybe 80s. Geoff Mann was in the band for a while I think.

[AndyR]

I've got a feeling I, or a band I was associated with, supported them at some local gigs at one point.

A 70s/80s prog-rock-metal band? Can't remember anything else about them at all though

[Oldrottenhead]

where they not more folk prog, i vaguely remember a band of that name or a name like that that sounded a bit like jethro tull in their songs from the wood mode, sorta pastoral prog. but it could be another band altogether. if its the band im thinking of i never got into them as i was carried off on a wave of punk rock.

[Migs]

Pastoral could be it ORH. I think he was a minister as well.
His daughter Bethany has has an amazing voice but I've not seen anything new in a few years. I was hoping by the whole 6 degrees of separation, one of you might know if she is working somewhere or recording yet.

not much info at allmusic but discography info suggests they are still on the go

Ah, sounds like a different Twelth Night then... but I wasn't paying too much attention to them at the time anyway

I'm not familiar with them but I found some info on the web.

Thanks 64.

That is what I was after.  I saw some of Bethany's stuff when she was about 17 or so and was wondering if she was still about.  She would be 20 now I suppose and I have seen nothing new.  Would be a shame if she didn't keep up the vocals.

I assumed belting out songs for 3 years would have strengthened her voice.

Cheers
