The Tirith Releases Fourth Album Quetzalcoatl

The Tirith released their fourth album, Quetzalcoatl, on July 3, 2026. The record contains 12 tracks, and its title refers to the feathered serpent deity Quetzalcoatl associated with ancient Mesoamerican cultures. The band also released a music video for the track Save The Oak.

The current lineup consists of Tim Cox on guitar, Dick Cory on vocals, bass, and acoustic guitar, Anthony Hill on keyboards, and Paul Williams on drums. Cox and Cory began making music together as school friends in the 1970s and first played in a band called Minas Tirith. Following a break of more than 30 years, they reunited in 2010. Cox also co-wrote and produced Rozalla's 1991 dance hit Everybody's Free (To Feel Good).

The band released their first album, Tales from the Tower, in 2015, followed by A Leap into the Dark in 2019 and Return of the Lydia in 2022. The Tirith has performed at events such as Cambridge Rock Festival and HRH Prog, and has shared the stage with Focus, Karnataka, and Gnidrolog.
