Twilight Green
Childhood friends turned talented musicians, the five piece rock band Twilight Green travel the country performing their electric stage shows to an ever growing fan-base. Focusing on smooth melodies combined with hard hitting grunge riffs and funk-driven bass lines the groups ethos is work hard, play hard - whether in the recording studio or onstage, charging up crowds. Originating from previous rock group Rattin Kran, members Gregg Stageman, Ryan Stageman and Karl Everett joined with the brothers Rob and Adam Goss to reinvent their current sound. The result was explosive; leading to immediate studio collaborations and a quick mastery of the live gigging arena, with venues becoming increasingly packed with appreciative fans at each show. Following successful first shows, Twilight Green set up their own website and myspace account to update fans with new upcoming venues, songs, live videos, photos and merchandise with each site gaining multiple hits a day. Currently preparing for the release of their first album, the members of Twilight Green continue to write new material and wow audiences with their unrelenting positive attitude; bringing hard rock back to the heart of the current music scene.
