Biography
In 1978, the magazine Billboard named them as «New Artist or Group of the Year». Nineteen years later, in 2007, they were inducted into the «Rock and Roll Hall of Fame». Peter Beckett came to the United States in 1974 to join Skyband, but the band disbanded. Later he met JC Crowley in Hollywood, at a white dress party. Both were wearing jeans and T-shirts, which was unusual. They became friends and started recording songs in JC's garage. They called themselves Riff Raff, but later changed the name to «Bandana». They recorded a single called «Jukebox Saturday Night».
Ronn Moss joined the band after meeting Paul Palmer, who introduced them. Although at first there were only three, John Friesen, the drummer who had been in high school bands with Ronn, joined later. Their sound was based on a soft pop rock style, with keyboards and harmonies. That style fit well with the music of Los Angeles.
