Ronnie Starr saw daylight in the spring 2000. The band released their first EP the same year. Finlands former president Kekkonens television was a part of the cover art. The record company Levy-yhtiö was instantly interested in the band and chose the EP as the hottest self-paid EP of the month.
The following year, Ronnie Starr took a huge step forward. After signing to Levy-yhtiö, the band released their first official single The Dance/ Miss Moonshine. The foursome promoted the single by touring Finland as the opening act for one of the biggest bands in Finland, Apulanta.
In the spring 2003, Ronnie Starr got Lasse Kurki, the vocalist and guitarist of Lemonator, to produce their debut album. Under Lasses influence and guidancethe group humbly crawled into the studio and the fruits of the co-operation were ready for everyone to enjoy when First Take was released in September 2003.
The album title was decided when Lasse said during the recording session: QI dont know what it is with you guys, but you always seem to do the best job on the first take.” The result of those sessions was an intense and passionate rock’n’roll album. The eleven smashing songs are soaked with melodiousness and raw power, performed with a sweaty seventies attitude. Two singles were released from the album.
In the autumn 2003, Ronnie Starr made their first video. The song was Rock n Roll Dreams and it got great reviews from the audience as well as from the critics in Levyraati in January 2004 (Levyraati is a music programme on Finnish telly some well-known people criticising songs and music videos).
