Sojourn – Lookin’ For More 1985 (2007)

80’s AOR melodic rock/
Coming from Utah, a US state that scarcely makes a blip on the melodic rock radar, SOJOURN was formed in the earlier ’80s by guitarist Doug Robinson. The band soon built up a strong local following, even winning a radio station sponsored ‘Battle of the Bands’ contest, and quickly set about recording a serie of demos.

By the end of 1984 they sign a deal with a regional label. The recording of their debut “Lookin’ For More” speedily took place on a local studio.
Initially the album was released solely on tape in November 1985, but with provincial sales under their belts a vinyl version followed in March of the next year.
