A Hungarian rock band, founded by Szigeti Ferenc in September 1979. They are playing american west coast style music. After their formation, during one year, they became one of the most popular and determinative Hungarian rock bands in the 80s. Their first album, released in 1981, was sold 178,000 copies. In 1983 they won the Grand Prix of the International Song Contest in Villach, Austria with their song Reqiuem. This resulted an agreement with OK Musica to release two albums in English in Western Europe. The first album became a gold record in Austria. They toured in Hungary and the other socialistic countries, Austria, Germany, Cuba and the Soviet Union. Dispite of this, they decided to disband in 1985. Five years later, after Hungary's transition, they reunited in 1990, but gave concerts rarely. They celebrated their 25 years anniversary of their formation in September 2004 by releasing a new studio album, followed by a tour in Spring 2005. They have been active since then, touring all around Hungary.
