The band consists of Soraya Mirgalou (drums), Annika Forsberg (Guitar and vocals) and Hanna Maurin (bass). It all started in April of 2000 when Annika Forsberg was searching for band members by putting up notes in local record stores: that's how she met Soraya and Hanna. They quickly connected by a common bond in music and lifestyle, and after spending the evenings listening to songs they decided to name the band after the Persian princess Soraya and - of course - their own drummer.
