The early years (2002 and 2003) represent a period of apprenticeship and sound research: in the meantime, the first live performances and the first rock competitions, as Cover Festival Faenza, Faenza Rock and Frogstock, take place.

In March 2006 the band participated to Romagna Cover Festival competition, held at the Naima Club in Forli - Italy, ranking first.
