At first Solid Harmonie were three girls from England: Beki, Mariama and Melissa. In 1996 they had their first chart success with the very catchy song Got To Have Ya. In 1997 Mariama stopped for a while performing while she had to look after her sick mother. A new girl joined the group: Elisa, who comes from Orlando, Florida (U.S.) Later Mariama joined the band again. In 1997 the second single was released: I'll Be There For You, again a very catchy tune which sounds a bit like 'N Sync's I Want You Back and Tearing Up My Heart
