Also in 1993 the song ''Super Nature'' became another favourite on [[Contact]], and the following year ''The Bastard Tree'' also surfaced on the airwaves.  This lineup remained together (loosely) between 1993 and 1996, until Mike Miller took an extended hiatus from public performance.  Between 1995 and 1996 the band recorded an album with [[Greg Locke]]'s [[Orange Recordings]], which remains unreleased.  Founding members of the band remain committed to completing this significant body of Miller's work.
