Bio / info

Daevid Allen (1938 — 2015), who went by a variety of names, including Divided Alien, was an Australian poet, guitarist, singer, composer and performance artist. He was a co-founder of the psychedelic rock groups Soft Machine and Gong. In spite of being Australian, he was one of the founding forces and primary figures of the Canterbury Scene. His restless spirit insured that his discography would be long and complicated, with countless variations on Gong, many solo recordings using various names and backing groups, and frequent guest appearances on other artists' albums.
