In 1989, several members of G arenas Clan moved to Salt Lake City where they began preparations to introduce the Wasatch Front to a new kind ofmusical expression, the white-hLatin sound of Damaris. Damaris first performances in Salt Lake were for church groups and weddings, which still constitute a large part of their bookings.
