The first songs were written on the basis of good repititsionnoy in DC 40 years of October, following – in the studio "Silence." While Producing a group engaged in a good friend with a speaking name, Sergei Pantykin. As time went on.
By some coincidence, bassist Alex Rodionov left the group by selecting a different path in life. In his place (after small lull) came Oleg Safyanov, nicknamed "Doc" (the only experienced musician in the group). Being cheerful and good-natured man, he not only gave a major boost to the further development of the group, but also brought with him many fans.
