Included two of the famous Löytty brothers geniuses Sakari (drums) and Mikko (bass) in their lineup; as well as the master keyboardist/guitarist Petteri Salminen from the Juice leskinen band. Female singer Päivi had a solo record written by Juice Leskinen. Pianist Jouko laivuori has been in the famous Avanti and YLE radio orchestras and colloborated with another Löytty, Jaakko, on that sibling's albums.
