Band name "The Banished" is BANISHED!
by Xyra
Dec 4, 2008

Greetings from N i b e r l u n g e n !

Trust this finds all of you in cyberspace well!

NOTICE: My spiritual adviser told me to drop our latest band name, The Banished,
because of the negative connotation. I concur, and so does Andrew. Thus, we will
use only Xyra, until we settle on another title, like "Dark Glass Shining" which seems
to resonate nicely.

An excerpt from the Bio page for The Banished:

"In 2005, then calling themselves The BANISHED, inspired by a song title, the three core
members Xyra, Andrew and Jeff geared toward the future.

The Banished hoped to bring to the control booth and stage, a wealth of previously
unreleased material. Acoustic performance combined with electronics would provide the
perfect backdrop for old and new material, that they thought would extend their fan base.

A new CD was slatted for completion in 2007. However, now this will likely surface at
the end of 2009, simply under the name of ""Xyra". (Band names are under consideration.)

NOTE: The photo posted to the right, by Tatyana Vishnevsky, is a pre-car accident,
live XYRA band shot, showing members: Xyra, Andrew Cann and Jeff Spencer."
