This is Terje Eide's Official ON THE RISE MySpace website.
Hailing from Bergen, Norway, Terje Eide (lead & background vocals, guitars) is the former and founder of ON THE RISE.
Terje first captured the public ear at age 16, as singer, guitarist and songwriter. His musical career began in earnest a year later, through winning a local talent contest. He later enjoyed a stint with the band Heaven & Hell, a rock institution in Bergen in the 80s. In 1986 he won the Norwegian National Rock Championship on national TV with the band The Heat. He started his own band a few years later.
Terje has spent several years exploring various musical genres, as well as playing with local artists as a guitarist, singer and backup singer. This capacity landed him a variety of large-scale shows and concerts, backing acclaimed Norwegian artists.
Terje went back to his roots of melodic rock in 2000 by starting a project who later on became ON THE RISE. A demo was made in early 2001 which immediately raised the interest of Frontiers Records s.r.l, who signed the project in June 2002.
Several rockmagazines writes that ON THE RISE has created the melodic rock ultimate debut album, boasting influences from the likes of Toto, Nelson and Boston with elements of the typical Skandinavian melodic rock.

Every now and then there comes a time when a band hits the big one. Means a band manages to create the perfect album within its little musical universe. In this case ON THE RISE completely comes out of the blue.
