A big viking land of glory, music-wise.
And from such a land, generations of musicians have had the best music readily available to listen to and to choose from.

So, it all began with Leffan (drums) and Boli (guitar), both longtime band friends, and both playing in powermetal band Eye of Ra (and still doing it). Always visiting all rock places in Sthlm (Stockholm).
It´s in one of these encounters that they meet Kristoffer (aka Kris), in the begining of the seemingly never ending winter of 2016.
It was the opening of Harry B. James, one of Sthlm´s most iconic places.
Guitar in hand he approached, after just moving back to Sweden from Brazil, unaware of the journey about to begin.
Next step to follow, Kris started to frequent Leffan’s (Leffis) and Boli’s studio as a friend, on a weekly basis; mostly to hang and share some drinks/karaoke, without knowing that that was the start of the whole DRISTEIG era. He eventually shared his own private songs and they were recieved with open arms, too good to just let go...
He became and still is a huge fan of Eye of Ra, but Leffis and Boli became a huge fan of his, ergo the next chapter and most important one:
"LET´S MAKE A BAND TOGETHER"
Being best friends already, there was no other choice than to pursue this new and most excting chapter together, as a band, uniting all forces and following our biggest and most undeniable passion, MUSIC.

So, DRISTEIG was created, but, the line-up was yet not complete until Mr. Marcus Karnstedt came in and showed them from one day to the other how much a bassist player can actually do, and how much were they actually needing one.
