Soon after that keyboard player Junnu followed by the guitarist Martti also joined the ranks. The name At Dawn They Sleep was given to the new band. 1994 Cellist Immi joined the band to bring some more orchestral feeling to the music. The first demo titled 'Red Sun' was recorded in a local studio. It sold some couple of hundred copies and got good feedback from the people but record companies weren't very interested in it. 1998 For a long time we just wrote new songs and played some gigs here in Kotka but finally in august 1998 we recorded our second demo titled 'Lust'. The demo was send to some major record companies and some of them seemed to be very interested in hearing more of us. However no contracts were signed. 1999 At Dawn They Sleep wrote some new songs and in April 1999 recorded them in a local studio with their friend Hide doing the mixing and producing. The songs were put on the internet as mp3 files for people to download and they've become quite popular. An old friend of the band, Mr. Mikko Oksanen, founded his own label Northern Sound Records and asked if they'd want to sign to his label. Some kind of a debut album has now been planned to be released year 2000. The band split up in 2000.
