El grupo se formó en 1985, año en el que editaron el single "Crazy game". En 1987 editaron su primer álbum que se titula "Strange fire".

EVERYBODY'S WAITING (FOR SOMEONE TO COME HOME) (by Amy Ray) ---------------------------------------------- [each chord is about half a measure; D11=554030]
INTRO:
[This is the exact pattern for the first four measures; it varies some through the song. Sometimes there's a quick hammer-on from 0 to 2 on the B string right before a low E at the beginning of Em measures.]
