Oliver Wakeman already has a cult status in the progressive rock community. He was acclaimed both as a solo artist and as part of various musical projects by fans and by critics (in January 2008 Oliver was presented with the Classic Rock Societies Keyboard Player of the the Year award!). His latest studio project album entitled Mothers Ruin from 2005 - marks a progression in Wakemans musical career. The album sees a change in direction from Olivers recent instrumental releases and draws heavily both from his progressive roots and also the experience performing live with his band.
