Page "Iona (band)" Paragraph 2

By the time Iona released their first self-titled album in 1990, drummer Terl Bryant, bassist Nick Beggs ( formerly the bassist of Kajagoogoo ), Fiona Davidson on Celtic harp, Peter Whitfield on strings, Troy Donockley on Uillean pipes and percussionist Frank Van Essen had joined the band.

The first album Iona concentrated mostly on the history of the island of Iona, from which the band got its name.
