They were: Vin Colella (vocals), Dan Lerro (guitar), Bob Stanfield (keyboard), Steve Janks (bass), and Alan Hoke (drums).
They have only released an album Revolution Street in 2008 and a version with different mix Revolution Street Revisited in 2011.
Fans were putting two fingers up in the shape of the peace sign at the V's concerts, and after lead vocalist Colella started taking certain public political stances, Artie Kornfeld (the creator of the original Woodstock 69 and former VP of Capitol Records) noticed the band.
Kornfeld saw V's first independently directed video to the song Breakdown and instantly signed Colella to a management contract.
Colella and Kornfeld saw eye to eye on several issues as well as the way to approach V's debut release independently.
Being fans of classic bands such as Zeppelin, Bad Company, Van Halen & Genesis and loving the acts of their era such as Seether, Cary Brothers, Remy Zero, The Goo Goo Dolls & Matchbox Twenty, developing V's sound would not have been achievable without recruiting engineering legends Shelly Yakus (John Lennon, U2, The Ramones), Wayne Davis (Breaking Benjamin, Paramore), V's Bob Stanfield & Ted Richardson.
Later they completed their debut release Revolution Street and immediately started working on a follow up (which wasn't released) and making more music videos.
