Magik Dayze Featured On FB And Youtube Pomp Rock Channel

A recent CD purchase came from that posting. Here’s what the buyer had to say.

“Looking forward to hearing the album very much. I heard of your music through a FB group called Pomp Rock where pomp rock fans discuss bands from the pomp rock fraternity down the decades. One of my musical acquaintances Willy V. who is a huge pomp rock fan posts in the group and your band featured last week – he uploads a few tracks on his “aorpompy” YouTube page – so I heard one of your tracks there and really liked what I heard and read about you – it can be really tough to track/find out about stuff so I’m glad he posted your band! 

Cheers,
Jeff

YouTube video added to Magik Dayze playlist

The freshly remastered version of For The Ones We Love is now available on Youtube.

This tune was a collaboration between Mike and Robin. A great thing about the Dayze is that we would try anything that anyone brought in. I (Mike) played a line that I was working on and we jammed with it at practice. Robin said he had a riff that would work with my bit, and we put the two parts together to create this song. Some tasty playing by the Magik boyz.
