The band PAX was started by the two brothers Christian and Michael Fridh. The guys started playing together in 1989 in a band called Excalibur. Christian played guitar and sang lead vocals and Michael played keyboard. The band had its peak in 1991 when it played at the world famous Swedish festival Hultsfreds Festivalen. Christian kept playing the guitar while Michael started playing drums, then bass, then switching to guitar and then finally finding himself with the bass again. Together they formed one of the most powerful string sections around. Michael picked up singing and was soon hired as a backup singer on several productions.Christian toured with different Swedish national acts. In the year of 2000 they had both been working as hired guns for a long time and felt that it was time to do their own thing. To get the right band, to create the sound that they wanted, they called their long time friends Jaime Salazar on drums and the keyboard wizard of Oz, SG Petersson. Since they had been working in almost every genre possible they had a lot of influences which could be a problem but as they started to try out some of the stuff in the rehearsal studio, it all fit in to place. A dark, rock oriented album with strong melodies and harmonies however with a BIG sound! After having written almost 30 songs they had the songs for an album and got in touch with RoastingHouse Productions. The response was positive and the rock began to roll. The recording of PAX debut album started and the album is now produced, mixed and available for the world. In 2005 we made some changes in the band including new members. We would like to thank S.G, Jaime and Stefan for their time with us. PAX current lineup is: Michael Fridh: Lead Vox and bass Christian Fridh: Lead guitars and B-vox Oskar Ling: Keyboards Martin Fürst: Drums
