Halyx was a short-lived sci-fi themed rock band developed by Disneyland Records that performed at Disneyland's Tomorrowland during 1981 at the Space Stage outside Space Mountain.

In the early 1980s, hoping to expand beyond children's records and movie tie-ins, a team at Disneyland Records experimented with creating a rock band. Taking advantage of the science fiction craze inspired by the success of Star Wars, they devised the concept of an intergalactic rock band and decided that Disneyland's Tomorrowland would be an appropriate venue to debut the concept and test the waters for a full record. Proposed names included "Strike", "SQWAD", and "Starfire" (which made it as far as concept art), before settling on the name Halyx, with a mixture of human and costumed alien performers such as a white Wookiee-like creature that played bass, an acrobatic amphibian percussionist, and a robotic keyboardist. Ultimately, the band only performed for one season in 1981, with Disneyland management feeling skeptical of the idea of loud rock music in the park, while a partnership deal between Disneyland Records and Warner Music Group to produce the album ended up collapsing.

In 2008, audio recordings of Halyx songs from the live concerts found their way onto YouTube.

Live from the Space Stage

Just About Had It

Los Angeles, California serves as home base for the concept group called Vitamin String Quartet. The group is made up of studio musicians who are brought together to interpret and record orchestra style covers of music from all types of genres ranging metal, techno, country, pop, rock and hip-hop dance music. While the quartet uses a wide assortment of artists and instruments, one fairly constant member of the group is violinist Tom Tally. Tally has been intimately involved in the composing, arranging and conduction of many songs on approximately 50 of the albums that have been recorded by the group. While the group is referred to as a string quartet, the reality is that more individuals are usually involved, using instruments such as violins, cellos, percussion, brass and woodwinds. The group was originally brought together in 1999 as an experimental project. They wanted to determine the effects of using classical style instruments to create new and different sounds on popular recordings. Early on, the FM broadcast station WWHK in Concord, NH would play the group's music 24 hours a day, every day, for a period of time. The popularity of the group's music has led to the music being featured on TV and in the movies. Credits include So You Think You Can Dance (2008), TV show The Vampire Diaries (2010), the 100th episode of Gossip Girl and the fifth season finale of Modern Family (2014). Throughout the years, the group has been involved in the recording of over 200 different albums. In 2009, the group stepped out of the box a bit and recorded some original material provided by some of the various musicians on the album Per_Versions.
