In 2008, singer and composer Luca (ex front-man of Italian Rock Band Zeropositivo) started writing new songs for his first international album, inspired by his passion for music & cinema. Soon, the idea of accompanying each song with a video or mini-short movie came to life.

Luca got in touch with music producer RnO, keyboard player and music producer from Holland. The team harmony grew quickly as new musicians joined the project, giving birth to a new European Rock Band.

By the end of 2008, their debut album had been recorded & mixed at GravelandStudio near Amsterdam, while film-makers across Europe (Amsterdam, Milan, Krakow, Vienna) started shooting videos that would accompany the band’s performance at live concerts on an ecleptic trait-d’union between music & cinema.
