Andrew Fernandes (voc),
Urs Meyer (g),
Andy Lang (dr),
Francois Terrapon (b),
Gregor (g)
The voice, dynamics, and stage presence of Andrew, paired with Andy’s powerful yet subtle drumming as well as the soloing and exceptional guitar-sound of Urs, made this band one of the “hot acts” of Basel and the surrounding area of Switzerland.
I had occasionally played with Andrew, both on acoustic guitars, at parties and we had a lot of fun. The additional instruments and amplification of the band brought the power. Gig highlights were in Basel (at the “Kuppel”), Pratteln (at the “Z-7”), in Bottmingen, Liestal etc.
The playlist included rock, power-ballads, blues, well-known and lesser known stuff, and quite a few penned by Andrew and/or Urs.
Shortly after I left the band, it became a regionally quite successful "cover unplugged" Band, with a few changes in the line-up, until it desbanded around 2000.
