The Italian neo-progressive band Tale Cue was originally formed back in 1988. At that time vocalist Laura Basla, guitarist Silvio Masanotti and keyboardist Giovanni Porpora were playing together in a cover band but decided to form Tale Cue to create their own music.
This resulted in releasing two albums; 'Four Tales 'in 1989 and 'Voices Beyond My Curtains' in 1992 before disbanding. After their departure in 1992, Tale Cue left behind unfinished expressions and unspoken emotions that lingered through the years.
Now Tale Cue has reunited to revive unfinished stories, weaving their signature style with the experiences, dreams, and sounds collected over the years of silence. They have transformed that long pause into a powerful resurgence - a true revenge through music. Their new work, Eclipse of the Midnight Sun, embodies this rebirth: a light that had always existed, finally revealed after a long eclipse.

‘Eclipse of the Midnight Sun’ is a journey through time, memory, and emotion. From the echoes of ‘Voices Beyond My Curtain’ to the present, they explore the battles within (The Rage and the Innocence), the pursuit of dreams and illusions (ForGold and Stones), and the passage from loneliness to love (Suntears). They tell daring stories of adventure (Gordon Sinclair), reflect on the cycles of life (Tides), and confront chaos with a musical Pandora’ s box (The Cue). Haunted memories (Lady M), the inevitability of death and rebirth (We Will Be Back Once More), and the intertwining of personal struggle with art (Vertigo) complete this vivid tapestry —a testament to their return and the light finally emerging after a long eclipse.
