Alianza was a unique Anglo-Chilean collaboration between three English musicians, Steve Knightley, Phil
Beer, and Dave Townsend, and three exiled Chilean musicians, Sergio Avila, Mauricio Venegas and Vladimir Vega. The group sought
out the common rhythms, themes and melodies to produce a blend of songs in English, songs in Spanish and songs in both languages
,and dance music from both sides of the Atlantic. The group produced one album Alianza in 1992, which included a number of
songs that later became part of the repertoire of Show of Hands, the acoustic roots duo formed by Steve Knightley and Phil
Beer.
