Germany, The PILEDRIVER story started back in 1995 when the band was founded by Michael Sommerhoff ("Rick Parfitt") and Peter Wagner ("Francis Rossi"). Being fans of the original STATUS QUO line-up (also referred to as the "Frantic Four") they weren´t very fond of the releases after the final "Frantic Four"-album "Never too late" in 1981.
The "Thirsty work"-CD from 1994 was the "momentum" for their decision to kick off a "tribute-band" which wasn´t bound just to reproduce popular tracks of other people but to develop self written material in the very much appreciated "FF-style", the sound the original SQ once stood for and that secured them their place in rock history.
