The band started doing the live circuit, and released three studio albums in quick succession on independent label Salad Records - "The Winds of Change" (1991), "World of Wonder" (1993), "...and All the King's Men" (1994).
They have established themselves as a decent live and studio act, and gained lots of attention by playing with many different acts. This led to the band being offered a record deal by progressive rock specialist label Cyclops Records, and that Mark Kelly of Marillion offered to produce their fourth studio album, "The Myth of Independence", released in 1995.
1998 saw the release of "Living in a Promised Land", and one year later the live album "The Freedom Train" was issued. Bass player Hugh Gascoyne left the band and was replaced by Andy Faulkner.

The studio productions "A Man Was Made" saw the light in 2004, "Faithful Faithless" saw the light in 2005, and in 2006 it was time for the band's second live album "Something of the Night".
2008 saw the release of an EP with 3 new compositions, named "The New EP", and several live shows as a full band or acoustic trio were scheduled throughout the year.

2. Originally called Jump, Little Children, Jump changed their name before their final full release "Between the Dim and the Dark" in 2004. Most of the band's fans referred to the group simply as "Jump" and the band decided to embrace the name.

Jump Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
As if without a care
Wondering should I take the fall
Of should I take the stairs
Have I already fallen over
And now spinning in the air
I don't know
'Cause I'm in this vertigo
Leaning from a precipice
That only love would dare
Spinning in a gravity
That only love could bear
Were I to tumble from this cloudy high
How would I fare
Take it slow
I'm in this vertigo
Take me down
Down to where the rain falls
Down where the rain can wash away this high
I feel I've gone
Beyond the edge and falling
Falling like tears that turn to snow
Falling in this vertigo
Leaning from the balcony
Above the interstate
Will I come around too soon
Or will it be too late
Surely there's only one direction I could go at this rate
Down below
I'm in this vertigo
Take me down
Down to where the rain falls
Down where the rain can wash away this high
I feel I've gone
Beyond the edge and falling
Falling like tears that turn to snow
Falling in this vertigo
If I had my way, I woul,d stay up here forever
And never look down
But surely it will come, 'cause I've always had that feeling
Of rushing the ground
Rushing the ground
Leaning from the balcony
As if without a care
Wondering should I take the fall
Of should I take the stairs
Take me down
Down to where the rain falls
Down where the rain can wash away this high
I feel I've gone
Beyond the edge and falling
Falling like tears that turn to snow
Falling in this vertigo
The lyrics to Jump's song Vertigo describe the feeling of being on the edge of something, unsure whether to take the leap or to step back. The singer is leaning from a balcony, both physically and metaphorically, contemplating whether to jump or take the stairs. The lyrics explore the idea of being caught in a state of vertigo, spinning in a gravity that only love can bear. This love is the only thing that gives the singer the courage to continue to exist in this state of uncertainty.
The lyrics also touch on the idea of falling, both physically and emotionally. The singer questions how they would fare if they were to tumble from this cloudy high, wondering if they would be able to take it slow. The lyrics suggest that the singer has gone beyond the edge and is falling, like tears that turn to snow, in this state of vertigo. They are aware that at some point, they will rush the ground and come back down to reality.
Jump's song Vertigo is a poetic exploration of the human experience of being caught between two states of being, unsure which way to go. The lyrics suggest that love and music are the only constants in this experience, giving the singer the courage to exist in this state of uncertainty.

Leaning from the balcony
Standing on the edge of a balcony
As if without a care
Seeming carefree while standing on the edge
Wondering should I take the fall
Considering whether to jump off the balcony
Of should I take the stairs
Or take the safer route down the stairs
Have I already fallen over
Questioning whether the fall has already happened
And now spinning in the air
Feeling disoriented and dizzy
I don't know
Uncertain of what's happening
'Cause I'm in this vertigo
Because I'm in a state of dizziness
Leaning from a precipice
Standing on the edge of a cliff
That only love would dare
A dangerous situation that only love would make someone risk
Spinning in a gravity
Feeling disoriented due to the pull of love
That only love could bear
A situation that only love can handle
Were I to tumble from this cloudy high
If I were to fall from this emotional high
How would I fare
How would I handle it
Take it slow
Be careful, don't rush
I'm in this vertigo
I'm in a state of dizziness
Take me down
Bring me down
Down to where the rain falls
To a lower, more grounded place
Down where the rain can wash away this high
Where the rain can wash away the emotional high
I feel I've gone
I feel like I've gone too far
Beyond the edge and falling
Over the edge and falling down
Falling like tears that turn to snow
Falling like tears that freeze and become cold
Falling in this vertigo
Falling while feeling dizzy
Above the interstate
Overlooking a busy highway
Will I come around too soon
Will I recover too quickly
Or will it be too late
Or will it be too late to recover
Surely there's only one direction I could go at this rate
It seems like falling is the only option
Down below
To the ground below
If I had my way, I would stay up here forever
If I could choose, I would stay in this emotional high forever
And never look down
And never come back down to reality
But surely it will come, 'cause I've always had that feeling
But reality will come eventually, because I know it will
Of rushing the ground
Of falling back down to reality
Take me down
Bring me down
Falling like tears that turn to snow
Falling like tears that freeze and become cold
Falling in this vertigo
Falling while feeling dizzy
