History & Biography
When a bunch of mid-western Americans look for success they move to (Winnipeg) Canada. The pomp rock band Alpha Centauri was founded in 1971. There they performed extensively with bands like The Guess Who (Jess performed there) and opened for the likes of Styx and Uriah Heep. A Canadian TV exclusive was even broadcast in 1978. The band was around for 12 years and broke up in 1983. Jess Redmon founded a label called Blue Zephyr. The sole album has been the subject of a couple of rereleases.
