The band started out in 1986, and
shortly thereafter, they won a
competition and were awarded studio
time in the same studio that TNT,
STAGE DOLLS and TINDRUM used for
demo recordings. The four-track demo
lead nowhere, as
the band split up due to jobs and
studies.The band members did however
keep in touch and gave it another
try at the beginning of the 1990s,
only
to understand that the market for
this brand of music had disappeared.
In 1999, it was time for a third
attempt, and the
result was a three track demo that
needed a first class singer. As luck
would have it, Bjorn showed on the
TV one night, doing a powerful
rendition of Wanted Dead Or Alive on
the national TV-show, Starsearch.
The success of the songs encouraged
the band to give it another try and
the whole of 2000 was spent
rehearsing and gigging. An
unsuccessful attempt at co-operating
with a Hollywood producer lead to
the recording of a soundtrack CD
that unfortunately never turned out
the way it was intended. All the
while, the band finished writing and
recording their own album, "Midnight
In Paradise". The album was released
in Europe through MTM Music in 2002.
The long overdue, sophomore effort
came in 2008, with the release of "TWO"
in the US & Europe via Perris
Records and Japan through
Spiritual Beast.
