Passion initially started in the 1980s with Pat and Dennis,  in Dennis’ basement making “noise” on Guitar and Drums. We weren’t good enough to play any cover songs at that time, so we wrote our own! The formation and demise of several cover bands followed, and after many members came and went, Pat and Dennis remained. Linked by a lifelong friendship and after recording the entire album twice, eventually finishing it in our newly built “Passion Studio’s”, we finally released our Debut Album “High Emotion” on 12-13-1996.

Since then, Passion has played many live shows with the help of our great friend, Mark Rapchick. Mark enabled us to play live as a three-piece band. With his remarkable skill on Bass guitar and his powerful voice, he was “instrumental” in enabling us to bring the Passion live experience to many fans!  Mark has been an incredible friend and band-mate and we are so grateful to have him as part of the Passion family.
