| It all started in the north of Sweden in the year of 2003 when five guys decided to start a rock n’ roll band. Influenced by bands such as Kiss, AC/DC and Mötley Crüe they began their songwriting and ended up with their first demo tape; “Checkpoint Charlie”, in the spring of 2003. After the demo tape was released CC played a couple of gigs until they felt it was time to record some new material. The second demo tape was released in the spring of 2004 and from that moment on the number of gigs started to increase and Checkpoint Charlie began to find their audience who seemed to think that CC’s 80’s sounding Heavy Metal was something really cool. Full with inspiration and confidence a number of new songs were made and recorded during the autumn of 2005 which became Checkpoint Charlie’s third demo tape called “Checkpoint Charlie III”. The number of gigs and fans is increasing and new hard n’ heavy sounding songs are constantly written to keep true sounding rock n’ roll alive! |
