PARIS HILTON


Artist: G.N.P.




Robert Bevan (vocals)
Steve Negus (drums)
Jim Gilmour (guitar)
Jeff Jones (bass; touring member)
Bob Bartolucci (guitar; touring member)
Rino Lista (guitar; replaced Bartolucci)

Following a break in the schedule of Saga, members Gilmour and Negus formed the Gilmour-Negus Project (GNP) with former disco/pop singer Robbie Rae performing under his real name Robert Bevan. They recorded one studio album in 1989 with help from Jones and Bartucci which was released on Virgin Records Canada.

The single and video for the song "How Many Times" gained them TV exposure on Much Music, YTV and other network programs like CBC-TV's 'Good Rockin' Tonight'.

The band toured briefly and after it split up, Gilmour and Negus returned to Saga while Robbie Rae continued performing the Toronto club scene with The Robbie Rae Band. He eventually moved to Thailand to open his own bar and survived the Indonesian Tsunami on December 26, 2005 but later died in Pukhet, Thailand in 2006 after a short illness.
