Per-Henrik Mäenpää born in Sjuntorp, Sweden 16:th of december 1973 Born in the deep forest outside of Trollhättan, in a small green house, Per-Henrik used to sit with his mothers knitting sticks and play drums on the big leather sofa, in the livingroom. Slowly driving his mother crazy… At the age of 16 he finally got his first drumset. Which he banged as hard as possible to Motorhead-covers, in a friends garage. Succesfully driving his parents crazy… After a while he became bored behind the drums, and started singing and writing lyrics instead. And after a couple of hard nights, doing the dishes at a local restaurant, he bought his first taperecorder, a Fostex with 4 tracks… March, 19:th, 2003 the first releaseparty took place at hotel Lydmar, Stockholm. Per-Henrik released his first soloalbum with the name: Gods prototype. On a small Gothenburg label, with excellent reviews in the press. The two following years Per-Henrik spent trying to figure out which way to go, and what to do with his music. Putting a band together was never an option, so he decided to let faith decide and wrote an add on the internet… Michaela Birtic born i Szcecin, Poland the 12:th september 1979 Four weeks later she moved to Sweden, with her polish mother. Where her father already waited for them… With one foot in Poland, the other in Croatia, and the third in Sweden. She was brought up in a small village in the middle of nowhere. With a strong sense of being different. Michaelas first musical experience was a tape with Edith Piaf, that she found in her fathers rare collection. A chessboard and a woodenstick became a violin, that was played along to this tape all the time. Her dream from an early age, was to become an artist and play the piano, but after 8 years of boring piano lessons, always writing her own songs, instead of practising her homework, she recieved her first guitar at the age of 16. The singing and songwriting began, and her friends told her that she really could sing… Something she had never really understood. After a highschool-cafeteria concert, people started to cry when she played one of her songs. She had found her true calling… This was what she was ment to do… 18 years old, Michaela moved to Skinskatteberg, to study music. One year later she moved to Stockholm, for more studies and a vision of putting a band together… and so she did. Psycadelic pop to rock, country to blues… with all kinds of musicians, and she became bored… again. She had been to an electro consert, an fell in love with the idea of finding someone feeling the same… seeing the same… hearing the same. But it took three more years, before she by accident saw an add on the internet. She didn't dare to belive that it was going to be anything else, than a brief contact, but i appeared to be the beginning of so much inspiration.
