Artist History Canyon, as it now exists, was formed around two central singer-songwriters, Ryan Biddle and Nathan Burton. Starting as buskers singing Beatles 'classics' on the streets of Chester,(earning up to £140 on a good day!) it wasn't long before Canyon began life. The first incarnation of Canyon was basically an acoustic duo comprising of the two singer-song writers Biddle and Burton. Their main appearences tended to be the odd slot before a local band around the Wrexham area, supporting the likes of The Benjamins. It was soon decided that in order for Canyon to progress it was a priority that they expanded their line up, consequently broadening their sound, opening wider the doors of musical possibility. Two new members joined the band at the beginning of the summer 1999, these were Andy Edwards on drums and backing vocals, and Piers Norbury on bass. Canyon's first gig took place in Telfords Warehouse,Chester and have been playing in the area and recording material ever since.
