Welcome to Magenta Music.

Magenta were a popular folk band operating out of the west country from 1975 until 1985. They played a variety of original and traditional music and released 3 albums which are now available through cd format.

All members of the band are still making music, both together and individually and are still living in the west country.

This site brings together all their various musical endeavours and includes the history of the band, their music and an update on their individual careers since 1985. The site also includes histories, profiles, details and links to various other acts who have been connected with the various members of Magenta over the years. Many of these acts have also produced cds or other material, which may be of interest. The intention is therefore that Magenta Music can expand to include details of other acts in the South West both past and present, providing an opportunity to purchase their material and for the acts to extend their links to a wider public if they so wish..
