Lifesigns was the brainchild of John Young (keys/vocals), Frosty Beedle (drums), Steve Rispin (sound) and Nick Beggs (bass/vocals). Their first album, Lifesigns, was released in February 2013 and sold well, briefly reaching the UK top 100 album chart. Guests included Steve Hackett (Genesis), Robin Boult (Fish) and Thijs van Leer (Focus).

The current album Altitude was recorded remotely  and released in March 2021. Tours are planned (lockdowns permitting) in November 2021 and April 2022, ahead of Cruise To The Edge in May 2022.
