Laos | en

There are at least three artists with this name:

1) A German melodic hard rock band.
2) A folk music collective out of Richmond, VA.
3) A Finnish Drum and Bass artist.

The first was founded by and named after vocalist Gudrun Laos (who then changed her name into Aino Laos), who was previously known as a member of British-based band She.
Gudrun was flanked by Living Death guitar player Frank Fricke (co-founder), guitar player Ralf Hansmeyer, bass player Thomas Röben, ex-Avenger , Rage & Mekong Delta drummer Jörg Michael and keyboard player Wolfgang Schindler. As a singer, Gudrun Laos was often compared with Doro Pesch, as she had a similar voice.
Laos released their first album We Want It in 1990 and disbanded soon after. .
