Afterwards, Andro recommended Adri who had often done jam sessions with him to fill the position of drummer. The four of them then invited Rama to join. At the beginning of April 2005, Nidji added another member, Randy, a keyboard player who was a close friend of Giring.

In 2012, the "Liberty Victoria" song was used by Manchester United F.C. as a new anthem.
