  • Refugee was a progressive rock group formed by former The Nice members, bassist Lee Jackson and drummer Brian Davison, with keyboardist Patrick Moraz. After The Nice, Jackson had formed Jackson Heights, with Davison later becoming involved in the project too. Jackson then invited Moraz to form a new trio, Refugee, with him and Davison and following the same keys/bass/drums format as The Nice had. Refugee released one album on Charisma Records. The music was composed by Moraz with lyrics from Jackson. An archival live album recorded that year is due in 2007. Without a deal for a second album and with tensions in the band, Moraz accepted an offer to join Yes in 1974 and, after a final few shows, Refugee split up. Davison went on to work with Gong. Both Davison and Jackson would later retire from music, until the Keith Emerson/The Nice reunion shows in the 2000s.

  • Refugee var ett brittiskt progressivt rockband som släppte en enda självbetitlad skiva 1974 på etiketten Charisma. De är än idag ouppmärksammade trots den mycket finslipade musik de skapade. De är intressanta för progressiva lyssnare som uppskattar Yes musik eftersom man kan dra ett antal paralleller till dem, framförallt till skivan Relayer. Med i bandet var Lee Jackson och Brian Davidsson samt Patrick Moraz, som samma år kom att spela in skivan Relayer med Yes. Musiken har kraftiga klassiska influenser, och därmed kan även paralleller till The Nice göras, även om de får sägas vara svaga eftersom ljudbilden är av helt annan kvalitet, och domineras av Morazs moogsynthar. Den klassiska inspirationen hämtas dessutom till större delen från andra epoker än i The Nice.
