Many influences wound together that form something new and unique.
Sometimes you have to go that extra mile to find the perfect players to create a paramount band: Dan Toler, legendary guitar player formerly of The Allman Brothers Band, Gregg Allman's Solo projects (I'm No Angel;Just Before The Bullets Fly) and more recently Dickey Betts and Great Southern lives in Sarasota, Florida. A mere 880 miles up the east coast, Eddie Zinner, former powerhouse guitarist for Southern Legend lives in Virginia Beach, Virginia. Jazz pianist, Ron Gary, who has performed with legends such as Webster Young and Tom Browne is another 225 miles away in Silver Spring, Maryland. In spite of the physical distance between them, the three founding members of TGZ come together to create an unrivaled combination of talent, passion and imagination. Toler’s southern influenced blues and Zinner’s rock influenced guitars in combination with Gary’s jazz piano culminate into something that is best described as BLUSION!
But… the blues train doesn’t stop there…adding their own flavors to the TGZ mix are five other accomplished and seasoned musicians.
Admired for his singing and songwriting is John Townsend who may be best remembered for his 1 Billboard hit with Ed Sanford - "Smoke From A Distant Fire" in 1977. Townsend has worked off and on with Toler over the years but now his powerful and soul infused vocal abilities have led him on an impressive musical journey towards TGZ; AND, bringing distinctive tone and heartfelt vocals note after note is R&B singer Tony Green. Providing the powerful and dynamic forces on drums and percussion is John McKnight and ripping the roof off track after track on his nine string instrument is Avon Lucas of Peaches and Herb. The newest recruit, Matt Zeiner, has a passion for music that has allowed him to groove along side Matt "Guitar" Murphy of Blues Brothers fame and Dickey Betts & Great Southern but now spices up the TGZ sound with his soul–infused improv on the mighty Hammond B-3 organ.
In late 2006, TGZ released their first studio album “Living Dangerously” with special guests Viktor Krauss (Lyle Lovett Band) and Floyd Miles (Gregg Allman and Friends). “Living Dangerously” is being played on radio stations all over the United States and receiving great reviews. Dick Wooley, founder of King Mojo Records and former VP of Capricorn Records and Promotion Executive with Atlantic Records said "It’s the best music I’ve heard all year.”
In February of 2007, TGZ was extended an offer from Dick Wooley to be included in their roster of talented artists. Wooley has an extensive background in promotion and artist development and helped to establish legends such as; Percy Sledge, Cream, Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young, Buffalo Springfield, Led Zeppelin, YES, Lake and Palmer, Aretha Franklin, Derek and the Dominos, Otis Redding, Wilson Pickett, Eric Clapton and now TGZ. www.kingmojo.com
