The story of Wan's starts in the early eighties when Phil W joined Lattice Work, the band where Champ X played guitar. After several line up changes and a serie of live gigs, festivals and support acts (The Membranes, Bollock Brothers during the Germany tour), they released an EP in 1989 "In Memoriam" recorded in Luc Van Acker's studio in Tienen. One year after they split and a few months later Phil W (guitar) and Champi X (keyboards) played as musicians in Snowy Red for live gigs following the release of the album "The Beat is Over" in 1990. From 1991 to 2003, it's a complete silence. In 2004, the two friends decided it was time to be "back in business" and they started a new electropop project "once again" shortened in Wan's. After trying several line ups they found the best one at three, JC vocals, Phil W guitar & bass and ChampX guitars & Groovebox. With this formula they recorded a 4 songs demo in December 2005. Afterwards, JC left the band in 2006 and then Micky Mike (Snowy Red) reappeared in their lives, first as singer ad interim then as Wan's lead vocals in 2007. They were selected to put a song on the compilation "The Egg Take One from Sunny side Up Records in 2008 and they released a single "Je te hate" in December 2008. Due to serious health problems Micky Mike left the band. Back to zero, ... as once Slash said :"looking for a singer is the story of my life..." They met Red Ced in January 2009 who accepts to become the new lead singer.
