Lead singer David Ross, who recently began going back through the band's old recordings to remaster the works, said he was delighted to see more of Raining Stairs' material see the light of day, adding: "I think the material is strong and well recorded."

And the new EP is not the last fans wil be hearing of the band's material. David explained: "Future releases will include live recordings from the late 80s / early 90s, more archive studio/home recordings."

He is also planning to release more recently written material he recorded on his own without the other original band members.

He added: "[There'll] maybe even [be] a couple of songs recently recorded with Indian classical musicians in Goa - a massive departure in style."
