Tower of Foil

About Me

This has been going on for almost six years. It all started in the fall of 1999 as the founder Daniel Bjorck felt he needed to have a pure pop-project. Since then it has taken many forms but the songs and the melodies have always been the main element. Nine EP's have been released since the start and a tenth is in the making.
