Germans are a rock band from Toronto Canada. They are a core duo of Billions Koper and Leon Taheny, who have been making music together since their meeting in an arts high school in Mississauga. Billions a major in art, and Leon a major in music, combined their love for toying with synths, samplers, and guitars with their appreciaton of tastful dancey music, like B52s and DEVO, to make a sound that is their own. Their music is created around their mutual enjoyment of life's finer moments. Running around the suburbs with your friends, driving to the beach with your girlfriend, sneaking into parties and tearing it up, the things that make the world a better place!
Aside from recording and playing shows, Germans self produce music videos, such as their stop motion video for "I am the Teacher" off of their 2006 debut Cape Fear (Arena Rock Records), and are currently working on 2 video treatments for songs to be released on 2010's album, Club Tan.

BIllions and Leon have been working with notable acts such as Final Fantasy, Sebastien Grainger, Ohbijou, and The Sick Lipstick, whether it be playing in their bands or producing their albums. They are currently putting the finishing touches on Club Tan, a 10 song album of loud and straight up pop/rock that has been in the works for the past couple years, and are ready to present it to the world! Come see these shits play, it's time for Germans to take over!!!
