Gunner was formed in the beginning of 2003 (under the name of Gunner Sixx), in Buenos Aires, Argentina. It all started when Rodrigo Bugallo (lead guitar) and Mariano Angiolili (ex drummer) decided to form a band with noticeable influences of 80’s hard rock. They asked Emmanuel Blandini (rhythm guitar) to play with them and after their first gig on May 2003, Hernan Mastrogiacomo (bass player) joined them as the band’s steady member.
