Gilbert Marshall, keyboards, harmnica, percussion, vocals
Jan Torkild Johannessen, drums
Lars Petter Holstad, bass guitar, backing vocals.

They played at one of the best indoor festivals in Europe; Symforce 2008:
Live it is a wonderful band, the three, 4 vocalist are great to listen to and giving the show are more dynamic point of view. And with 3 guitarist on stage you can expect some fireworks and yes they did give away some nice solo’s. Powerful keybaords and a good rhythm section. Great band!
They did some interaction with the crowded and that worked well. And they ended with a peaceful message, that is always welcome in this world.
Hope to see them more often.
