A fairly short-lived, early 90s British Hard Rock band that enjoyed a reasonably good reputation in the clubs and recorded the odd demo, HIGHWIRE were fronted by TONY O'HORA, a scene veteran of TORINO, Thrashers ONSLAUGHT and LARRIKIN, and amongst their accomplishments the group supported THE SCREAM's London Astoria show in Britain. Shag (real name Duncan Burbury) and Cleverly since resurfaced with new outfit WASTED IN WONDERLAND.

O'Hora subsequently became singer with veteran AOR act PRAYING MANTIS. O'Hora and Kane united to issue a Japanese release solo album under the title HORA-KANE. During 2003 O'Hora was fronting fabled 70s Glamsters SWEET and in September of 2004 joined STATETROOPER, not as a singer but as a bassist. TONY O'HORA issued his debut album, 'Escape Into The Sun', through the Italian Frontiers label in January 2006. Acting as guitarist and producer for the project would be Swedish Magnus Karlsson of STARBREAKER and RUSSELL ALLEN / JORN LANDE repute.
