Biography
Vagabond was formed by ex-TNT members Ronni Le Tekrø and Morty Black in 1993, after the split of TNT. They were joined by ex-Stage Dolls member Steinar Krokstad, TNT`s live keyboardist Dag Stokke, and, initially, Sons of Angels vocalist Solli, before Jørn Lande joined the lineup. Their first album, Vagabond, sold 10,000 copies in Norway, but they were dropped by label EMI. They were then signed by the Japanese Victor label. Their second album, A Huge fan of Life was released in Europe on the band's own record label. The end came with the reformation of TNT in 1996, and subsequently the band members went their separate ways.

Famous quotes containing the word biography:
“There never was a good biography of a good novelist. There couldn’t be. He is too many people, if he’s any good.”
—F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896–1940)
“The best part of a writer’s biography is not the record of his adventures but the story of his style.”
—Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)
“As we approached the log house,... the projecting ends of the logs lapping over each other irregularly several feet at the corners gave it a very rich and picturesque look, far removed from the meanness of weather-boards. It was a very spacious, low building, about eighty feet long, with many large apartments ... a style of architecture not described by Vitruvius, I suspect, though possibly hinted at in the biography of Orpheus.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
