About Me

Summer 2004 Janus and Marco met each other for the first time. They soon started jamming together and their enthusiasm just kept on growing. And the Songs they wrote just kept on piling up!! It became very obvious to the boys: they had to find a drummer and bassist! They rearranged they’re jamming-area into a real band room, with enough space for a drummer to do his thing. They quickly found Dave over an add in the internet, who gladly accepted the role as bass player. Finding a drummer was somewhat more difficult. Not even Marcos drummer needed T-shirt helped facilitate the search. But after a couple of jams with a drum computer and other drummers, Andy finally found his way to NEEDED. So they started to spend gruelling months working together a decent set list. The started off playing private parties and small locations. The Band grew and the stages became bigger. End 2006, detected by Zlatko Perica, they played a couple of gigs in the TV-Show "mobileact - battle of bands" and reached the third place. After the intensely "Remember Me Tour 2007/08" Andi and Dave decided to leave the Band cause of private reasons. They had a fabulous goodbye-concert at the Bierhübeli in January 2008. So a new era began. The young and talented Musicians Phil (bass) and Adrian (drums) were found pretty quickly. So they are ready now and full of verve. Needed is a versatile Pop Rock Band from Berne/Switzerland. Their songs range from beautiful ballads to kick-ass-balls-to-the-wall rock songs. Their music lives off beautiful vocal and guitar melodies and heavy, rhythmical Drum and Bass interplay.References: Bierhübeli Bern (3 times), MAD Lausanne, Das Schiff Basel, Mascotte Zürich, Stufenbau Ittigen, Altstadtfest Luzern, Schützi Olten, Sous Soul Bern, ONO Bern, DeadEnd Bern, Mattenhof Resort Club Interlaken, Müller Deisswil, Openair Schwarzenburg and many more…
