Well well! It has been ride and a half world wide with this bullshit that was COVID and the world wide response has affected everyone in one way or another; It affected The Cilikis as well. We had released an album and video clip in 2019 and spent a good couple of months prepping to play out Anomaly album live for everyone and BOOM, Covid hit and wrecked all of that. We put it on the back burner like everyone else did and after the big lockdowns, we went back in to the studio to rehearse for a live show at the Woolly Mammoth in Brisbane's Fortitude Valley in November 2020. That was the only gig we had in 2020 and decided to start working on some new material but with what has been happening in the world of live music, we decided to take a break during 2021 to rest and reset. Our guitarist, Brendan, moved house a number of times since 2019 which hasnt helped the situation along with COVID and other life interruptions .
Now its 2022 and we are set to start writing some new music again after the lockdown induced live music debacle that was 2020 and 2021. Brendan has purchased a new seven string guitar to venture into a different world of music writing and working on some massive tunes for a future fourth album! Brendan and Ty will be getting together in the coming weeks and months to do some jamming and writing of new material. Greatly looking forward to that! Nice beefy seven string progressive metal action and maybe a slight return to our Cilikis Progressio Project days with some good ole guitar instrumental stuff.. We'll see what these sessions bring, we are looking forward to it getting back into it.
Thats all from planet Cilikis for now. More updates to come...
