The band was originally called Lonewolf, with an initial line-up featuring Di'Anno, Peter Ward and John Wiggins on guitar, Mark Venables on keyboards, Kevin Browne on bass, and Mark Stuart drumming.[2] The band released albums Di'Anno in June 1984,[1] and Live from London. In the year 2000, the album Nomad was released under the band name of Di'Anno, with different musicians.[citation needed]
For the album, drummer Stewart was replaced by Dave Irving, who in turn was replaced by ex-Def Leppard, Waysted and Roadhouse drummer Frank Noon.[citation needed] The debut album Di'Anno was not a commercial success and the band split up later that same year.[2] After this, Paul Di'Anno was hired to join Gogmagog with future Iron Maiden guitarist Janick Gers, former Iron Maiden drummer Clive Burr, along with other musicians to form this "supergroup".[citation needed]
