During the mid-1970s former Daddy Cool guitarist Ross Hannaford became a devotee of Satguru Maharaj Ji and the Divine Light Mission. In 1977 he travelled to the USA to attend various religious festivals. While in the US he formed One Foundation with bassist Joe Creighton (ex-Melissa) to play at Mission conventions. On his return to Australia, Ross, and Joe Creighton formed Billy T with guitarist Russell Smith (ex-Company Caine), drummer Mick Holden (ex-The Mixtures), percussionist Geoff Maling and Neal McPherson on keyboards.
