Biography
An outfit assembled by former IRON MAIDEN drummer Clive Burr. The skinbasher was joined by Canadian singer Bernie Shaw and the Troy brothers, who were all previously with another infamous NWoBHM outfit PRAYING MANTIS. Subsequently they would be joined by the STAMPEDE credited keyboard player Alan Nelson.
The band was forced to change its name to TIGON in 1984 after another ESCAPE objected. TIGON was short-lived however, and another name change ensued to STRATUS. Shaw later joined URIAH HEEP whilst the Troy brothers resurrected PRAYING MANTIS. Nelson enrolled into the ROBIN GEORGE band.
