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
In sanctuary a child was born Give praise and thanks to the Lord His mother waking with the dawn Told that King Henry had been restored The Kingmaker once again supreme The poor King Henry in a dream To sanctuary a queen had fled For that Kingmaker she did dread In sanctuary his child was born Give praise and thanks to the Lord Though leaving England he had sworn That the House of York would be restored For King Edward had to flee For the safety of Burgundy To Warwick many declared their hand When at Dartmouth he did land In sanctuary this child was born Give praise and thanks to the Lord Crying with the waking dawn Would his father's crown be restored Greeting Henry as his lawful King Greeting and freedom he did bring When Warwick to London he did arrive The House of Lancaster to revive In sanctuary a child was born Give praise and thanks to the Lord
