Background of our Artists

For the background of our artists we were thinking to have 3 people in the band, 2 male and 1 female. The first man will play the guitar and sing with the female and the other man with play the drums in the back.

Ideas for our story:

- Icelandic or Norwegian members
- Best friends since primary school and play pretended bands and fake concerts with their parents
- They started becoming serious with music at the age of 13 when (girl) discovered she was talented with singing and (drummer boy) had been playing drums since he was 7 so he was talented and (guitar and singer boy) started playing guitar a year before when they were 12 but had never sung in his life until the idea of forming a band became an idea when they were half way through A levels
- They started by performing covers of songs in pubs in front of close fiends and families for 2 years until someone who attended one of the gigs asked them to perform at their wedding in 2007 in Finland. It was the first time (girl) and (drummer) had been out of Iceland/Norway, (guitarist)'s mother lived in Germany who he visited every other weekend.
- After performing at the wedding the band was discovered by (something) records who asked if the record label could sign them.
- They got their first album released in 2009 'Lost' with their record breaker Dirty Paws. After the album was released the record label sent them on a European tour. Tickets sold out in Glasgow, Manchester, Belgium, Lille, Florence, Madrid and Helsinki. They were so popular that they went on a world tour in 2012, they went to USA, Australia and New Zealand where tickets sold out in Vancouver, Chicago, Seattle, San Francisco, Auckland, Queensland and Victoria.
