The members are Jon "JB" Blakey – Guitar, Mario Ermoyenous – Bass, Nick Flaherty - Vocals, Nigel Halford – Drums Throughout the 90’s, constant gigging, both locally and nationally, led to a hardcore fanbase throughout the UK and support slots with Terrorvision, Rockhead and Little Angels. Before signing to Bleeding Hearts/Music For Nations in 1994, the band recorded a 5K demo of the month in Kerrang! and winning the ‘Rock War’ on the Friday Night Rock show on Radio 1, hosted by Tommy Vance.
