find some other source of income, this little voice in my head chimes in and says "hey bud, you're
really not qualified to do much else." And right about then the phone always rings and I'm off on
another musical adventure....
| This time it was Danny Toler on the line. Danny had been working in the winter and spring of '06 with a group based in Virginia Beach, VA called the TGZ Band. I had heard a few cuts from their sessions while on the road with Danny and The Renegades. Their music knocked me out. They sounded like Tower Of Power without the horns. Anyway, I wound up spending some weeks in Virginia Beach rehearsing with the band and preparing for a showcase for some agents and managers and several hundred close personal friends and family. |
We rocked the house the night of the showcase and started the ball rolling in a big way. Since then we've signed with some pretty high profile booking agency, management, and distribution situations and in the spring of '07 we connected with Dick Wooley (former head of promotion for Capricorn Records) and his label, King Mojo Records. The TGZ CD was officially released on August 7th, 2007. As of this writing and we've already picked up hundreds of radio stations and dozens of internet stations around the globe. | TGZ Band members include:
Singers Tony Green and Johnny Townsend, Guitarists Dan Toler and Ed Zinner, Keyboard players Ron Gary, Matt Zeiner and Malcolm Campbell, Bass player Avon Lucas and on drums, Johnny McKnight.
