Foundation
In 2007, the MBBC announced the creation of a new music show called Music Idol Camp, the show would put several aspiring solo performers against each other, with their performances being judged by a combination of professionals and the popular vote.
As the first season of Musical Idol Camp was coming to a close Ascension Musical Productions was looking for a new group to help promote Malgravean culture overseas and started to scout talent from Musical Idol Camp as prospective new members.
After a series of musical and compatibility tests Eclipse was formed, with the group consisting of former contestants from Musical Idol Camp and trainees from the academy of Ascension Musical Productions.
2008-2012 - Debut & Rise
Eclipse debuted with the single Arrival, with the pre-debut hype around the group resulting in the song topping the local charts for nearly ten weeks.
