After

After... came into existence in June 2002 as a continuation of Awake group. Sylwia Wojciechowska took charge of vocalist, from Apogeum band joined Mariusz Ziolkowski, drum player became Radek Wieckowski, who has played in few local bands before. Soon Tomek Wisniewski supported the band.

In new personnel, full of zest enthusiasm they started common rehearses. Their collaboration quite fast brought new material, which was presented during STRUNA REVIEW in 2002. After... won it and received recognition of jury.

The band soon started producing material, which was thought to account for their debut album. One year later, in September 2002 After... started recording at ISLAND STUDIO and at the City's Theatre in Inowroclaw. Choosing Zbyszek Florek as a sound engeenier was a perfect decision. From the first hours of common work there was an excellent atmosphere what brought many interesting, not only musical, ideas. Unfortunately due to Zbyszek Florek's and the band member's duty recording was stopped and delayed. Meanwhile Quidam revived with Mariusz Ziolkowski on bass. After... debut album was slowly creating.

12th September band was invited to play in Poznan the concert with Sylvan and Riverside. It was a special evening. That day it became to be clear that OSKAR will be a publisher of After...'s music debut.
In September 2005 After... parted from Sylwia Wojciechowska. New grup vocalist became Krzysiek Drogowski.

Soon to common records was invited Colin Bass (Camel), Josef Skrzek (SBB) and Jacek Zasada (Quidam).
5th November 2005 After... played in Holland on PROG FARM Festival with Flamborough Head as a one of few bands performing that day.
