Shabash

The band was formed in February, 2001. In the very beginning the band consisted of two - Katrin and Natassja. In March Jane joined the band, she had come to play keyboard, nobody thought that she would sing someday. We were learning to play with the song of Him "Join Me". At that time Alexander Kobzar worked with us, he taught us a lot, so the band wants to thank him for his help.
But still the band needed someone to play bass-guitar. It might seem that the most difficult thing for a girl-band is to find a drummer, but in our case difficulties were connected with the bass-guitarist.

Shortly thereafter, neXus's time on this earth came to a sudden somber end. neXus continues to live on through his works of art.

Elephants from Neptune

In 2010, on the sandy beaches of love, a rottweiler in a sports bag started making 23rd century romance and suddenly fuzzy lightning began to burst out of her tits.

Markko Reinberg - lead guitar/vocals
Rain Joona - bass/vocals
