Spider - Between The Lines

Explore the melodic pop-rock sound of Spider, a New York-based band from the '80s whose music paved the way for keyboardist Holly Knight's successful songwriting career. This CD features their album 'Between The Lines', a fine offering of the band's signature style.

About the Band:
Originating in South Africa with guitarist Keith Lentin, drummer Anton Fig, and vocalist Amanda Blue, Spider's musical journey began before reuniting in Boston. Amanda and Keith also spent time in England, where Amanda pursued a solo artist contract. The band solidified in New York with the addition of keyboardist Holly Knight and bassist Jimmy Lowell. Drummer Anton Fig's connection to KISS, through playing on Ace Frehley's solo album, further shaped the band's trajectory. Signed to Dreamland Records by Mike Chapman and Nicky Chinn, Spider released albums that, despite not achieving massive commercial success, are highly recommended for their quality melodic pop-rock.

Album Significance:
'Between The Lines' showcases Spider's ability to craft memorable songs, many of which were later covered by other artists. This album, along with their follow-up, represents the band's dedication to their unique melodic pop-rock sound.
