Started as a side project beside Iron Maiden during their break in 1989. Adrian Smith decided after the release of "Silver And Gold" (their only record) to leave Maiden. In the late 70's he was with Andy Barnett in a band called Urchin. Their style was different from Maiden, only comparable to the "Somewhere In Time" session "Reach Out" (b-side of the "Wasted Years" single). The name stands for Adrian Smith and Project.
