Bio
The blessed year 2000, kristof janssens and gert Herrijgers have put up an old drum kit, a shook-up bass-amp and a four-stringed guitar. They're goofing off and playing around with old surf riffs and rhythms. when their good friend koen van loon passes by, the three decide to start a surf combo.
Come a few years, kristof janssens has put up a ‘real’ band and a space to rehearse in. 'The Moe Greene Specials' come together in the old cinema rex. The atmosphere and old images of a long gone glory in film is all around… bandmembers come and go. When guitarist peter lodiers joins the band, the TMGS music finally falls into shape. In 2004, drummer tom raeymaekers joins TMGS, and a definite line-up is set.
2005, TMGS record their self-titled debut album, released on Green Cookie records. it gets very positive reviews, and is defined as a topnotch ride in modern spaghetti western music.
In 2006, bart raats, a 2nd trumpet player, joins the band. immediately, he takes TMGS to another musical level. TMGS start working on new songs and decide to add vocals to the music.
Now, 2007, TMGS release open road (again) on sonic rendezvous records.
