Formed in 1992 in Heusden-Zolder, Belgium, the Evil Superstars are an often overlooked influential brilliant band, led by multi talented Mauro Pawlowski. After winning the HUMO rock rally, they gained a reputation for being a terrific live band. Especially Mauro's odd antics gained a lot of attention. In 1994 15 year old Tim VanHamel, who had a lot of experience from his band sister poo poo joined the evil superstars, creating the absurdist zappa-esque album Love is Okay. They toured europe as a support act for the more wellknown band dEUS, but in 1998 Mauro called it quits as their sales were not too great and despite good reviews they never got over their cult status.

Mauro has since then played in numerous bands, including Mitsoobishy Jacson, Kiss my Jazz, Monguito and Shadowgraphic City. He is currently a member of dEUS, The Love Substitutes, Othin Spake, Club Moral, Archetypes of the Multisabanas and I Hate Camera. Beside these projects, Mauro has released solo work under various aliasses: Mauro A. Pawlowski, Somnabula, while fronting a new group called Mauro Pawlowski & the Grooms.



For information on Tim VanHamel, there is a series planned.
