A new Stiltskin album called Unfulfillment was released in 2011. The band toured Europe during 20, and a live album entitled Stiltskin Live, recorded on 25 October 2006, with material from this tour, was released in April 2007. The current line-up released the album She in 2006. In 2002 he launched a solo career, followed by a Stiltskin "reunion" in 2005, which featured no original members except for Wilson himself and touring keyboardist Irvin Duguid (who later left the line-up). Ray Wilson joined Genesis and recorded Calling All Stations with the band (released in 1997) and toured Europe the following year. He is currently drumming in Sharleen Spiteri's new band. McFarlane went on to work with The Proclaimers and achieved another number one in the UK charts. Lawlor still works for Water Music Productions - he wrote the music for the BBC One 'Rhythm & Movement' idents and also the theme for their 2000 Olympic Games coverage and the theme for the Premier League and FA Cup football matches shown on TV. Stiltskin originally split up in 1996, during the recording of their uncompleted second album, for which James Finnigan had been replaced on bass by Aubrey Nunn, who later worked with Faithless. 37 on the Billboard Mainstream Rock charts. The band made significant critical inroads in the US music scene, but little was to follow in the way of sales, though "Inside" reached No. The original line-up released only one album, The Mind's Eye, which achieved a silver record in the UK, and sold in decent quantities throughout Europe. Lawlor and bass player James Finnigan worked together in various line-ups since the late 1980s, with Ross McFarlane on drums being drafted in later. All instruments on the band's hit "Inside" were played by Peter Lawlor this was also the case on the album track "An Illusion". The Ambrosian Singers performed Lawlor's choir-like intro vocals to "Inside". The resulting single, "Inside" topped the UK Singles Chart in 1994, but the band failed to produce further chart successes with the follow-up single "Footsteps" reaching No. The completed band set to work on the music Lawlor had written for the British Levi's television advertisement, "Creek". After watching his performance, the band immediately offered him the position of vocalist. A failure to find a suitable vocalist left the band on hold until 1993, when they came across vocalist Ray Wilson, who had been in a road traffic accident and required a lift to make the gig he was performing later that evening. In the region of forty people attended the various auditions at the Primrose Hill studios of Lawlor's company, Water Music Productions. Many people were auditioned for the role of lead singer including Naomi Cleaver, who is now a successful television presenter. Finnigan had previously worked with Hue and Cry, whilst Lawlor was returning from New York. The band was originally formed by guitarist Peter Lawlor and bassist James Finnigan in 1989, with drummer Ross McFarlane joining shortly after. Stiltskin - Full-length Discography (1994-2011)
