Vocalist/bassist Peavy Wagner, guitarist Manni Schmidt and drummer Christos Efthimiadis, who released five albums in one of the most successful lineups of Rage, have reunited in the band called Refuge. Since 1994, the three musicians have played with different bands and continued to follow their own paths: Peavy with Rage, Manni with Grave Digger and Christos with Tri State Corner. Refuge are already confirmed for Sweden Rock Festival 2015.

In 2014, after a long period, where they had not much contact, the three guys met again and decided to play a secret show in their German hometown Herne under the name Tres Hombres. The show was never promoted, apart from mouth to mouth and Facebook PR. As a result, this show became a real insider tip and more than 1200 followers found their way to that happening, at this late summer evening in 2014. The band performed all their hits in the original line up and enjoyed every second of that gig, getting hungry for more - the idea of Refuge was born. The three friends decided to spend time together again and to put a show in place that will probably bring many people into a 'back to the future' mood.

They stated: "Hey metalheads out there, we are very happy to announce, that we will have the opportunity to travel with you through the early years 1988-1993 one more time in the festival summer of 2015."
