Born April 25, 1958, in Edinburgh, Scotland, Derek William Dick (aka Fish) was the dramatic pencil lead vocalizer for prog sway band Marillion until start a solo career in 1988. Marillion was ab initio formed as an instrumental band in 1979 by guitarist Steve Rothery (b. November 25, 1959; Brampton, England), drummer Mick Pointer, bassist Doug Irvine, and keyboard participant Brian Jelliman. Irvine began vocalizing in 1980 on the group's low demos, but a year by and by Marillion invited Fish to unite as vocaliser, and he sham the frontman military position beginning with their 1983 debut album, Script for a Jester's Tear. His inviolable Peter Gabriel-inspired vocals enforced critics' accusations that Marillion owed more than just a heavy debt to Genesis, only six-spot more albums followed. Musical difficulties between Fish and the stripe caused him to leave behind subsequently 1988's Larceny Magpie (La Gazza Ladra). He was replaced by Steve Hogarth (b. May 14, 1956; Kendal, England), a singer quite similar in sound and style to Fish himself.
In 1989, Fish worked with Peter Hammill on Hammill's Fall of the House of Usher externalise, simply was and so replaced by Andy Bell. His debut solo album, Vigil in a Wilderness of Mirrors, appeared one class subsequently and continued the theatrical elan of Marillion's quasi-concept albums. After 1991's Internal Exile and the 1993 covers album Songs from the Mirror, he moved from EMI to Dick Bros. The Acoustic Session CD appeared in 1994, and one class subsequently Fish released a bivalent album (released individually), Yin and Yang. Sunsets on Empire was issued in 1997, followed by the well-received Raingods With Zippos on Chocolate Frog Records in 1999. During the new millennium Fish has continued cathartic CDs on the Chocolate Frog mark, including 2002's Fellini Days, 2003's Sashimi double-CD plant recorded live in Poland, and 2004's Theater of Crows.
