    Artist History
    Formed by Henrik, Mathias and Johan in March 1999. I (Henrik) and Mathias had been playing guitar together a couple of times when I met Johan (classmate of Mathias) at a legendary party in February '99. I had Cream's Wheels Of Fire LP (among others) with me, and grabbed Johan's attention with Willie Dixon's Spoonful (Mathias, by the way, brought Judas Priest's Breaking The Law with him). That same month we got together all three, Mathias switched to bass and we started rehearsing in my basement. In the fall of '99, we got ourselves a real rehearsal place and teamed with Rickard, who knew Johan and Mathias from school. We recorded our first demo in the last days of the century and had our first gig in February 2000. October saw the completion of a live album recorded at a successful gig in late September. We're currently gigging in our hometown while preparing for the recording of our second studio demo.
