Northern Lite

Electro-rock group Northern Lite carved out a respectable niche for themselves on the German music scene, not only via their record releases and remixes, but also via their own label, 1st Decade Records. Andreas Kubat and Sebastian Bohn -- a vocalist and DJ, respectively -- formed Northern Lite in 1997 in Erfurt, Thuringia, while guitarist Larry Lowe joined in 2001, bringing an element of rock music to the group's style of electronica. Lowe eventually left the group in 2004, going on to form the solo act Fujimo, and was replaced by guitarist Sascha Littek. ~ Jason Birchmeier
