Artist picture
I am a singer songwriter based in Torquay and I record my songs as the Legendary Ten Seconds.
The Legendary Ten Seconds started off as the solo music project of Ian Churchward during the time when he was the lead guitar player of The Morrisons who were featured on John Peel's radio one show back in 1987. In 2013 Lord Zarquon joined Ian's music project and since then various guest musicians and vocalists have helped out in the recording studio. The most recent musician to join the project is Jay Brown who has helped to compose and record a song called the Time Stream. The Legendary Ten Seconds have recorded many critically acclaimed English folk rock albums which chronicle the Wars of the Roses and the life and times of Richard III in England during the late 15th century. The albums are available on Amazon and itunes and the band have donated money to a scoliosis charity from some of the income generated from the sale of their music.

Lyrics
Square rigged with a beakhead bow High castles fore and aft Carrying the Pilgrim fathers Steered by a whipstaff On board the Mayflower From Plymouth to set sail A cruel wind will surely blow Now come and hear this tale Christopher Jones the master captain Knew his ship so well The master mate was John Clark With him he would set sail On board the Mayflower From Plymouth to set sail A cruel wind will surely blow Into an Atlantic gale On board the Mayflower From Plymouth to set sail A cruel wind will surely blow Now come and hear this tale On board the Mayflower From Plymouth to set sail A cruel wind will surely blow Into an Atlantic gale Now come and hear this tale Now come and hear this tale Into an Atlantic gale
