Angelica

Angelica was a later 80's early 90's Christian Hard Rock/Metal AOR band that was the brainchild of guitarist Dennis Cameron and with a very 80's commercial hard rock sound, less like Sunset Strip metal and more like the heavier side of Pop metal / AOR. Think 707, Shout, Tamplin, Prophet, Strangeways, Alien, Unruly Child, Stryper, Crystavox, Joshua, Mr. Big, Frehley's Comet or Sammy Hagar.
Dennis Cameron started playing guitar at the young age of 6. In 1983 he joined a local cover band called Antix and played with them until 1986 moving on to the band Masquerade in 1987.
While on the road with Masquerade during a 6 week club tour, laying in bed feeling alone and empty, Dennis found God.
Dennis met Andy Lyon (lead vocalist on the Demo Sessions) while running sound for Andy's cover band months later. Andy and Dennis began to write music and put together a 5 song demo that included Shine on Me, Will I ever Learn, Take Me, Only a Man and S.O.S, songs that Dennis had been working on since leaving Masquerade.
While recording and writing, Dennis met Christy Arnold who ran a fanzine called Take a Stand who supplied Dennis with contact information for a few labels including Intense and Frontline, at the time were 2 different record labels. Ironically, Frontline would go on to purchase Intense Records.
Dennis pitched his 5 song demo to both companies and immediately received an offer from Intense as well as began a dialog with Frontline Records who asked to hear more songs.
Going back into the studio Dennis finished a second 4 Song Demo that included the songs, One Step at a Time, I Believe, Satisfied and Danger Zone and now had 9 songs to present.
Dennis inked a deal with Frontline's new imprint label Intense Records and Angelica was born but not before speaking with Michael Bloodgood about the possibilities of joining Bloodgood. Dennis signed a 5 album deal with Intense and went on to record 4 albums in all along with a best of album.
