When three young lads met at College in Edinburgh, Coholic was born. When summer came and college was over, Coholic died. With the departure of one of the best young drummers in Scotland and the talented bass player's thirst to study in London, Coholic was but one man. Something had to be done. After a long rebirthing process Coholic is now on the rise. Singer and founding member Chris has recruited long time friend Jamie, to take over on bass and the ginger magic of Chris Smith to play keys.
The Bay City Rollers were a Scottish pop/rock band of the 1970s.

Bassist Alan Longmuir, his younger brother Derek Longmuir, a drummer, along with school mate, lead singer Gordon "Nobby" Clark founded the group in Edinburgh, Scotland in 1967, as The Saxons.
