Who remembers Sal Paradise? Obscure 90s indie rock band from Sydney, Australia (formerly known as The Crux–unrelated to the punk band). Those who do remember them are probably most familiar with their one and only album on Tooth and Nail Records, entitled “Further.” However, they had also released a few independent releases in their native country. This song, “Travels” made it to a Velvet Blue Music compilation in the form of an acoustic version. The electric version was darker, but just as moody. It was originally released on the Scatter release pictured here, but has popped in various other releases, including “For You and Before You” still available from the Velvet Blue Music shop here: https://velvetbluemusic.com/shop/sal-paradise-for-you-and-before-you/

Sal Paradise was a great indie rock band. The Crux, their previous name had an excellent E>P called Speed of Life, which is well worth tracking down. They really need a Bandcamp page.
I swear they used to have a Bandcamp, but now I can’t find it. I remember downloading some indie stuff from them a few years ago, but no luck tracking it down now.
I remember these guys! wow…brings back memories.
