Ulf Vestlund is fulltime bassplayer with top coverband DeSotos and works with leading Swedish artists such as Jennifer Brown and Andreas Johnsson. In 1999, Lars published some songs on the web, which resulted in a lot of interest from webzines and listeners around the world. After some highscore reviews the band decided to record a fullength cd. Ulf joined the band on bass and drums and the debut album “Northern Light” was recorded between Nov 2000 and May 2001 and released on Maple Leaf Records in June 2001. The band is recognized by the strong melodies in all songs, where the vocal arrangements are an important part, and the trademark is the mix of male and female vocals.
