Black Knight (5)

Heavy Metal band from Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. Formed in 1981, now disbanded. The band name came from a Deep Purple song called "Black Knight". Their first gig was at Charles Tupper High School in Vancouver, British Columbia. The dominant ideology of the band was to write and perform a unique and stylish brand of Heavy Metal music - accented by an elaborate stage setting that animates the fantasy montage presented by the lyrical content of the songs. The band members, who performed dressed in futuristic warrior fashion, consisted of Lori "Wilde" Bowing "The Scream Queen" on vocals; Chris Hopkinson on vocals; Gary Quaye on lead guitars; Glenn "The Hammer" Hoffman on bass; Mick Dianno on lead guitars; Glen Richards on drums; Ken Beckhold on drums; Stu Duffie on drums. Executive producers were Chris Papadatos and Manos Koufakis. Original fine artwork by Andre Hofman.
