Ex-STONEWALL, LUCIFER'S FRIEND and URIAH HEEP vocalist JOHN LAWTON released his debut solo album, 'Hardbeat', in 1980 after his departure from the Heep.
Lawton was to form ARK in 1980 with MOODY BLUES producer Tony Clark and vocalist Maggi Ryder, but an album recorded in the Bahamas remains unreleased.
Shortly thereafter he began work on a new band project to be called REBEL with talented German guitarist Tommy Clauss.
Adding fellow Teutons Peter Weber on bass and keyboard player Albert Stübler, as well as Italian drummer Peter Garratoni, the band set about writing an albums worth of rocking songs which straddled the line between the traditional Blues influenced Hard Rock of the 1970's and the leaner, more commercial sound of the genre in the new decade.
Signing to the Lark Records label, the band released their sole album, "Stargazer" in 1982.
Despite a heavy European tour schedule the band failed to take off, causing members to drift off and eventually prompting the dissolution of Rebel.
Lawton was later to appear as the vocalist with Clauss's new outfit ZAR on their first album, 1990's 'Live Your Life Forever' album before subsequently becoming a member of GUNHILL, who have released 3 albums to date.
He now also fronts his own John Lawton Band.
