IQ are very excited to announce the release of ‘Dominion’, the long-awaited new album. Peter Nicholls: “Hot on the heels of ‘Resistance’ six years ago! Yes, it’s been a long time coming (we couldn’t be accused of rushing these things!) but we're confident this album is really strong and has been worth the wait. To be releasing a new IQ album in our 44th year feels genuinely exciting.” Mike Holmes: “We did actually write a lot more material for 'Dominion', but this choice of songs (and the running order) feels like a cohesive album to me. Even in this age of streaming individual songs I still approach a new IQ release with a ‘side one’ and ‘side two’ thing in my head – the selection and placement of songs for 'Dominion' just feels like a classic album should (I know, I’m using ‘old people’ speak!).

Although she spent eight years in Akron, Ohio as a child, Janis Martin Martin always said that Virginia was her home. She was born Janis Martin Darlene Martin in Sutherlin, Virginia on March 27, 1940. When you consider that Ringo Starr, who epitomized a later generation, was born just four months later, you realize how young she was when she started. "I had a mother who was a show business/stage type mother," she told Bob Allen. "Both my father and my uncle were amateur musicians, and I can't remember a time when I didn't play or sing." In February 1951, bluegrass star Jim Eanes settled near the Martins, and Janis Martin joined him on the radio. Too young to play bars, she became a supporting act and local added attraction when the big names came to town. By age fourteen, Janis Martin had graduated to WRVA's 'Old Dominion Barndance' in Richmond when the show was a big deal in the country music world. When Janis Martin joined in 1953, she performed alongside Hawkshaw Hawkins, Jean Shepard, the Carter Sisters, Sonny James, and Martha Carson.
