Why Albireo?

Cygnus - Albireo is at the top left

Albireo is the name of one of the stars in the constellation Cygnus (The Swan). The band first met at The Swan with Two Necks in Stockport and held sessions there in our early days. We felt it was appropriate that the band's name refer to the pub in some way, and after a "rigorous selection procedure", the name Albireo was settled upon.
