Dave Bainbridge and David Fitzge Life Journey Iona cd
Iona's co-founders reunited in 2009 to create an inspirational soundtrack to Mary Fleeson's book, Life Journey. 
 
Dave Bainbridge offers, "In many ways this felt like we were returning to the source of the inspiration that birthed Iona the band.
 
Iona was born out of David and I improvising together during soundchecks on Adrian Snell gigs back at the end of the 1980's and David's mystical experience of God's powerful Presence one dark night on the Island of Lindisfarne. This book was also birthed by Mary on Lindisfarne and much of its imagery is inspired by that amazing place. At certain points during the album you can hear sounds that Mary's husband Mark recorded on the island - the St Mary's church bell, the sea lapping on nearby St Cuthbert's Isle, the sound of the seabirds."
