Self proclaimed "Prime-o-Pomp Canterbury Space Prog", North London's Prince of Pratts have arrived to take you on a journey in a flying tea pot to the land of 1971 from 500 years in the future... Taking influence from 2 main camps of progressive rock, Prince of Pratts fuse the jazz-pomp sounds of the Canterbury Scene (in particular Caravan, Khan and Egg) together with heavy Hawkwind/Gong inspired space rock.

Daevid Allen was one of the founders of the British progressive rock band the Soft Machine in 1966. After recording just one album with the group, he became the founder/leader of Gong, which he left in 1973 to begin a solo career (though his first solo album, Banana Moon, was released in 1971 while he was still in the group). Allen explored his quirky, folky take on rock throughout the '70s and '80s on albums like 1976's Good Morning and 1983's Alien In New York.
