The band released two albums in the early 1980s Breakaway on Tunesmith[1] and their second Decent Beat on Star Song Records.[2][3] History{{Refimprove section|date=January 2014}}Quickflight's musical style on their first album, Breakaway, was similar to keyboard-oriented, electronic, arena rock bands of the 80s mixed with new wave and was released on Tunesmith Records in 1980.[1] Their second album, Decent Beat, was recorded at Little Mountain Sound Studios in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, and was released by Star Song Records in 1983. It was ground-breaking because it was one of the first Christian Contemporary releases in which the instruments used consisted almost entirely of synthesizers and sequencers in a style influenced by British synthesizer bands, particularly After the Fire.[1] The album was also one of the first Christian Contemporary Music albums that was digitally mastered although it was never released on CD.{{Citation needed|date=January 2014}} Quickflight toured through the Mid-West and West Coast of the U.S. and parts of Canada, at several outdoor festivals, playing with a variety of Christian artists who included Steve Taylor, Rez Band, Kerry Livgren, Sheila Walsh, Undercover and Larry Norman.{{Citation needed|date=January 2014}} Through recording at Little Mountain, Ric deGroot met the members of the Capitol Recording group Strange Advance and joined them in 1984.{{Citation needed|date=January 2014}} Band members
