ZENO · THE BAND · THE EMI YEARS

The EMI Years.

Suddenly, the world was listening.

It began in London, where three musicians from Hanover signed a record deal with EMI. For the first time, our music had the prospect of reaching listeners far beyond Germany. An extraordinary new chapter had begun.

What followed took us through a succession of recording studios and, eventually, out on the road. Three parts of one remarkable journey.
