Info from Janne Stark's Encyclopedia
Dille recorded some singles and albums with hard pop/rock band Snowstorm, but quit in 1983. He worked as a producer and technician and formed Don Patrol in 1989. The first release is more AOR-ish and OK, while the second is great piece of Deep Purple-influenced hard rock with Dille's rough edged vocals. After the second album the band went through some changes and in 1995 a new album was recorded. Now the band had dropped the keyboards, changed drummer and the sound has become rougher. It was however never released. Daun and Thomsen also backed singer Michael Erlandsson. Daun also recorded albums with Arose, Kharma, Alien, Gypsy Rose, Hope, White Wolf etc. The band reformed in 2013.

Admin notes: The band suffered two tragic losses with the passing of Dille Didriksson in 2017 and Mats Olausson in 2015. To honor their legacy, the remaining members have been working to complete their third album. So far they have released four new digital singles on streaming platforms.
