Early in 2006 a group of students decided to have a couple of jamming sessions. After several successful yet casual jams, the musicians grew closer and it was not long before they decided to stick together as a formal band.


Early in 2006 a group of students decided to have a couple of jamming sessions. After several successful yet casual jams, the musicians grew closer and it was not long before they decided to stick together as a formal band. Eventually four of the members moved on to pursue their own styles of funk and rock forming a tightly-knit quartet that better suited their tastes. The members, Luke Grech (guitars), Ivan Giordano (bass), Robert Spiteri (drums) and Keith Zammit (vocals); had several successful gigs and managed to attract a decent following. Some months later, Joseph Axiak was invited to join the band on keyboards.

Few months later, Joseph Axiak - Keyboards was also invited to join the band.


2009 was the bands busiest year since its formation, particularly with a considerable number of gigs, including a performance at [[The Farsons Great Beer Festival]]. On top of this, Relikc recorded two of their own original songs: Tomorrow and Mindwreck, which received good radio airplay.
The musicians had been friends and had played together in many different projects from a very young age, and the band is as tight as ever and there is a great chemistry between the members.  


Tomorrow was voted Top Internet Release in Toni Sant's [[2009 MMI Listeners' Picks Poll]] while Mindwreck tied for Top Single with [[The Rifffs]]' Champagne Charlie's Ghost. These accolades brought them to the attention of several fans of the local music scene eventually leading to a follow up release called Rollercoaster, which was issued on Tuesday 16 November 2010.  
2009 was a very busy year for Relikc. The band breathlessly crammed 2009 with a multitude of gigs. Relikc also recorded two of its originals "Tomorrow" and "Mindwreck" and established its position in the local music scene pushing through with its particular style and variety of sound. After achieving two awards in the online podcast by Toni Sant, Relikc further sought to spread its music.
 
2010 was even busier, with more gigs, including a second appearance at the Great Farson's Beerfest, and with the release of "Rollercoaster" which is currently being aired on local radio stations.
 
2011? Relikc is planning big...
