Founder Java members Rosella Santoro (keyboard and lead vocals) and Rob Deegan (lead guitar and vocals), had spent a couple of years playing together in a band which primarily gigged at working men's and social clubs around London in the early eighties. They initially teamed up with Chris Britton, guitarist and original member of the British rock band 'The Troggs'. They wrote some songs and did some studio work together but nothing ever came of it. In early 1985, Rosella auditioned for a local rock band which had an outstanding lead guitarist (Martin Latham). She eventually persuaded Martin to join her and Rob to help form a new melodic hard rock outfit, the result of which was 'Java'.
