The story so far
The group was formed in 2003 in Timisoara (Romania). The name of the band was inspired by Ingmar Bergmans movie Persona. The members of Persona belong to the new generation of Romanian musicians that bloomed after the anticommunist revolution of December 1989 and they all have been involved in the music scene since then, playing in several bands before forming Persona.
In early 2004, Persona had had their first concerts, being enthusiastically received by the public and the local media, which quickly labeled them as the Brit band of Timisoara. In autumn of 2004, Persona had recorded the first 2 demo songs Home in the Arms and Computer Breakdown which were aired at the local radios. Following that year, they were invited by TVR (Romanian public television channel) to film a live video for Murder.
In 2007, Persona had entered the studio again and recorded 2 new songs A Ride on Love Street and Momentary Lack of Passion very appreciated by the public.
In 2008, Persona continued to tour Romanias major cities and festivals, sharing the stage with bands such as dEUS (B), Kultur Shock (USA), Air Traffic (UK), Trash Fashion (UK) and Robots in Disguise (UK). 2009 started well for Persona Momentary Lack of Passion has reached no 1 position in Romanian Top at CityFM Radio. Also Persona was interviewed by PRO TV (Romanian commercial television) for Apropo TV, a show promoting bands from the indie scene and chosen as the best band by its viewers with over 15000 votes cast on Internet.
