In Season 4 Episode 4, Soul Survivor.. there is a band wich went missing in an airplaine and then came back 10 years later.. they appeared to be dead but later all where revived.. all but the singer wich was dead or between life and death.. dissapeared in the end of the episode.

In the episode the band where called: Epiphany
they had made 4 CD's in the late 80's and their most famous album was called: Whatever.

Band members in the episode:

Epiphany:
Marshall Rose (Singer)
Carmen Joy (Keyboard)
Clyde Rodriguez (Guitar)
Fiona Apple (Basist/Backup Singer)
Vincent (Vinny) Summers (Drums)

-------------------------------------

I can't seem to find a band called Epiphany with a cd called Whatever from the late 1980's or early 1990's..

So if this is based on real events, wich band was it this happened to ??

Buddy Holly.

Seriously, the series is a scripted series not a documntary where the names have been changed. Dan Ackroyd gives the impression that the OSIR is a legit organization and it is, sort of; the US Office of Research Integrity.

However the OSIR that Ackroyd is refering to is a wholy fictional entity.

Back during the 1990's when it was being shown on TV, I wondered who funded the group, were they a private organization, a government unit, of a part of the UN. The dialog of the series doesn't even hint at it. The only thing that I can remember is that in one episode where Axon gets caught in a diminsional shift, he is standing in a bank teller line with his paycheck and it says OSIR with the logo and is made out for $3,000. Doesn't say whether it was US or Canadian.
