• Melodic Rock

Redolant of the times, BEAU NASTY was a Los Angeles based Melodic Rock outfit in it for the good times. Both New Yorker MIKE TERRANA and Canadian guitarist George Bernhardt had previously been a member of Toronto's HANOVER FIST, a band who actually performed this whole Arena Rock trip to a much higher degree than the inevitably doomed BEAU NASTY.

Mike Terrana was also previously a member of Buffalo outfit ZILLION and would subsequently play with the likes of YNGWIE MALMSTEEN, ARTENSION German acts METALIUM, AXEL RUDI PELL and RAGE in the 90's. Guitarist Brian Young teamed up with Swedish act TALISMAN in the mid 90's. Mike Terrana joined the ranks of MASTERPLAN in October. September 2007 found Terrana joining the live band of former NIGHTWISH singer TARJA TURUNEN.
