Europe

Europe is a hard rock group from Sweden, formed on January 1, 1982.

Europe is a Swedish rock band formed in Upplands Väsby in 1979 by vocalist Joey Tempest, guitarist John Norum, bass guitarist Peter Olsson, and drummer Tony Reno. They got a breakthrough in Sweden in 1982 by winning the televised competition "Rock-SM" (Swedish Rock Championships). It was the first time this competition was held, and Europe became a larger success than the competition itself. Since their formation, Europe has released eleven studio albums, three live albums, three compilations, and nineteen music videos. .
