The band was formed in 1998 when famous Danish music producers, Lars Quang heard Søren Bregendal singing in the lockerroom after his son's soccer game. L. Quang invited Søren Brengedal to his studio to test his vocals. Søren brought his fellow school friend, Esben Duus to the studio. At a warm up gig at a birthday party, the two met fellow musician David Pepke and the trio was formed.
