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:
“Under the spell of moonlight, music, flowers or the cut and smell of good tweeds, I sometimes feel the divine urge for an hour, a day or maybe a week. Then it is gone an my interest returns to corn pone and mustard greens, or rubbing a paragraph with a soft cloth.”
—Zora Neale Hurston (1891–1960)
“If Thought is capable of being classed with Electricity, or Will with chemical affinity, as a mode of motion, it seems necessary to fall at once under the second law of thermodynamics as one of the energies which most easily degrades itself, and, if not carefully guarded, returns bodily to the cheaper form called Heat. Of all possible theories, this is likely to prove the most fatal to Professors of History.”
—Henry Brooks Adams (1838–1918)
