The Ebony Tower

From the November Bash - Look out for Ebony Tower at RBF Events in 2005!

Play

The Ebony Tower was formed in 1996 as a vehicle for the material accumulated over a number of years written by Robin Stahl. Robin is rock guitarist in the classic mould and, through his playing in this band and a number of others, has a great reputation as a power player.

The Ebony Tower is the product of a blind refusal to accept that classic rock is dead as an art form. It also stands as a statement that power rock can subsist with intelligent lyrics.
