Stockholm's SCUDIERO is rooted in the early nineties act AREENA, this outfit featuring vocalist / guitarist Jori Helminen, vocalist / keyboard player Hans Grahn, bassist / keyboard player Mats Rova and drummer Michael Dahlqvist. Although AREENA crafted demos, the band never approached any labels and eventually folded. Grahn joined RAT TRAP whilst Helminen and Dahlqvist persevered under the new banner of SCUDIERO and fresh demos secured a label contract with the British based Z Records.

In 1998 Helminen and Grahn re-united once again for the AOR project PROJECT VANGUARD. Renamed BONAIRE, this venture subsequently evolving through various members, including SCUDIERO's Johan Fahlberg and Michael Dahlqvist, into a Jori Helminen solo concern.

SCUDIERO keyboard player Mikael Rosengren was previously a member of fellow Stockholm AOR act TOKEN and has session credits with DAMNED NATION. When TOKEN was re-activated Rosengren rejoined with SCUDIERO vocalist H.B. Andersson becoming the band's new frontman for their 2002 'Tomorrowland' album. Ex-SCUDIERO singer Johan Fahlberg joined German band JADED HEART in December 2004.

Early 2005 saw the unveiling of MINDSPLIT, a Progressive Metal alliance between H.B. Anderson, guitarist Mathias Holm and bassist Conny Payne (a.k.a. Conny Sundqvist) of ALIEN and MADISON repute.

Johan Fahlberg donated guest vocals to the track 'When Love Is On The Line' on the DEACON STREET 'II' album of 2006. That same year ex-SCUDIERO guitarist DANIEL PALMQVIST, having since joined ORANGE CRUSH, issued a solo album 'A Landscape Made From Dreams'.
