This parole's on Tommy's and JJ's banner since the early
days when they were kids. After years of fun and good times on stage family
and job duties got bigger so they had to say good-bye to this part of their
life.
Well, usually "human beings" are not as strong as they believe so the guys
decided to continue in a different way. What about all the good ideas and
songs they had written apart from the band?
They quickly decided to meet once a week to put together what would become
the ToJA project - some amazing melodic-rock songs and ballads with giant
choirs - the trademark of ToJA!
The first release "ToJA - The first Step" was an unexpected success not just
in Germany (eg denmark, czech republic ..) and had to be re-printed three
times. Today it is a collectors item.
After having finished the sessions for the second CD "The spirit of ...ToJA"
Andy decided to leave ToJA to get back on the road with his band "TOX-X"
which is a huge success until today.
Tommy and JJ decided to continue ToJA - now in their own "Master of
desaster" studio. They have already started work on the third release "the
train of life" to keep the ToJA banner up in their sense of music -
"hard but heavy".
