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.
