Returns To Oz
Influenced by Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Rainbow, Eliza composed an original rock score that synced with the 1985 cult classic Disney film, Return To Oz. Unlike The Dark Side of the Moon, Eliza's album was exactly the same length of time as the film making it a double-album. In 2003 Eliza WREN performed the score live at the Alamo Drafthouse Cinema, in Austin, Texas. Later, after moving to Utah, the group began recording with Hyrum Summerhays and Watchtower Records. The band spent three years in the studio. The album and performance premiered at the 2009 Sundance Film Festival in Park City, Utah. Actress and star of the film, Fairuza Balk attended and hosted the event. The event continues to tour the country.

Famous quotes containing the words returns to and/or returns:
“Only passions, and great passions, can raise the soul to great things. Without them there is no sublimity, either in morals or in creativity. Art returns to infancy, and virtue becomes small- minded.”
—Denis Diderot (1713–1784)
“Dear, why should you command me to my rest,
When now the night doth summon all to sleep?
Methinks this time becometh lovers best;
Night was ordained together friends to keep.
How happy are all other living things,
Which though the day disjoin by several flight,
The quiet evening yet together brings,
And each returns unto his love at night.”
—Michael Drayton (1563–1631)
