One Fine Day

A pop-punk/emo rock band from Hamburg, Germany, One Fine Day (Marten Plumer, vocals; Hendrik Burkhard, guitar; Roman Rossback, guitar; Marco Koehrsen, bass; and drummer Erik-Mac Essig) got their start when their demo was promoted and played on the northern German radio station Delta Radio in 2003. From there, the band went on to finish in the final five in that year's John Lennon Talent Awards, which led them to a record deal with Rockhit Records. The label helped them record and release their 2004 debut, Faster Than the World. ~ Chris True
