Mostly Autumn are an English rock band. The group formed in 1995 and have built their reputation through constant touring,[5][6][7] never signing to a major label. They produce music heavily influenced by 1970s progressive rock. According to the BBC, Mostly Autumn "fuse the music of Genesis and Pink Floyd with Celtic themes, hard rock and strong, emotional melodies".[1] They have also been compared with other progressive bands from the same era such as Renaissance,[4] Jethro Tull and Camel, blended with traditional folk music.[3] Later albums also include more contemporary influences.
