FROM BEHIND play blues based, hard rockin´, beer-drenched rock´n´roll with a metal touch for the great masses, hungry for twin- guitar based songs, sung by one of Britain's leading rock vocalists; Nicky Moore. Nicky's CV is as long and impressing as British rock itself. The former SAMSON front man, by some referred to as "the fat guy who replaced Bruce Dickinson", was in fact to large extent responsible for making Samson the British metal legend it still is today, putting the band to their highest chart positions during their career!
After Samson disbanded he became part of Mammoth, literally the heaviest of all heavy metal bands, alongside John McCoy of Gillan fame. With a voice dripping with soul and emotion, his reputation as a great performer is up there with the likes of Paul Rodgers, Frankie Miller and Van Morrison. Currently touring with his own blues band, he's today as active as ever.
Manuel "Manny" Charlton, a living legend, who from the start untill 1989 was the guitarplayer, songwriter, producer, you name it, in one of the seventies biggest and loudest rock bands, Scottish NAZARETH. The band gave the world hits as Love Hurts, Razamanaz, Hair Of The Dog, This Flight Tonight etc etc etc and is still considerd as one of the giants from the early days of hard rock music. The spanish scotsman, now residing in Dallas, Texas, will once again show the rock audience his amazing guitarplaying, songwriting skills, soul dripping slide solos and heavy riffing. Expect no Mercy.
Andreas Grufstedt, Mikael Fässberg, Fredrik Borg and Carl-Michael "Hilton" Hildesjö have kept a high profile on the south Swedish music scene, playing with Jet Black Combo, Burning Engines and Merrygold to name a few. Mikael and Andreas current occupation sees them backing former Iron Maiden vocalist Paul DiAnno while on his 2005-2006 tour.
Why the odd name?
Not even their manager knows for sure...Something to do with logistics maybe...
Why should you care... ?
Because the songs are firmly rooted in a time when Rock was about reaching out to an audience, instead of your own bellybutton. "A time when the Les Paul was king, and Singers we're allowed to sing..." It's Good, Clean, and Mean Entertainment performed with Emotion and Pride.
