About Me

It all started back in 1988,when the two boys, Jan Ove Olsen (guitar) and Trond Pettersen (singer),were down in Fredrikstad city.Jan Ove was driving his motorbike(Gsx 750 R) on the backwheel through the streets and Trond Pettersen was coming the other way against Jan Ove.A car came out of one of the sidestreets,and Jan Ove had to take the wheel down,and lost control of the bike,and then landed on his butt.Trond came up on his side and said to his girlfriend at that time,"uhh,that must have hurt!!"bad driving.That was the first time that they saw each other.Later the same year,Trond started out at Jotun,( a famous paint manufactory in Norway.Fredrikstad)Jan Ove had been working there for a while. So after a few weeks they came in contact,and were sitting in the diner area together with some other guys,and they were telling things that had happened before,you know,stories that we brag about. well,anyway Trond told the boys about the motorcycle happening,and all the boys laughed. then jan Ove said; "Eehh,that was me!!" And Trond did not think it was so funny anymore.That was the first time they met. it did not take long before they became friends,and they discovered that they had lot of things in common,like music.Jan Ove was playing in a band at that time which was a band they called Ammunition,and they were playing hardrock. But they did not have a singer at that point,so Jan Ove asked Trond if he liked to sing.And Trond said that he really liked to sing,and that he was interrested in trying to sing in the band. So Trond joined in and were in Ammunition for a while.But like so many things in life,it all comes to an end,and after a while,Trond was not in the band anymore.But trough years to come,Jan Ove and Trond came together,and made some music that they both liked,cause they share the same dream of a certain music that they would like to play and to perform. So in 1995 ,Jan Ove,Trond and a basplayer,Kennet Finndal came together,and made a song that was released on a project called Children Aid. The song was played in at X-ray studio in Sarpsborg,together with some other artists in Sarpsborg. The project was ment to be at help for children in Romania,Bucuresti. So all the sales from the album went to help the children in Bucuresti. The producer was Andre M Johansen.It was a christian project.We are still writing tunes,and we are working on an CD, that we will try to get out in the near future.Faith is also out on a cd called Riot On Sunset vol 14, that is beeing made through the Record company 272 Records.com, that are from the USA. Faith got an e mail one day, from this record company, and they said that they really liked the sound, and so they asked the band for to join in. So if you wanne listen, go to amazon.com, and buy the cd. Layout Provided By FreeCodeSource.com - Myspace Layouts
