Artist Biography
Available in: gb icon
GREEN LIZARD is a well established rock band from The Netherlands. After founding the band in the summer of 1994, teen brothers Brian, Willy and Brian Remi Tjon Ajong teamed up with drummer Roela in '95 and bass player Jay in '96. They split in 2007 but just got back together in 2012 releasing a new single called 'Junior'. Thanks to their enigmatic live shows and extensive touring Green Lizard built up a solid live reputation throughout Europe, played the Vans Warped Tour in 2003 and even did shows in South America. In May of 2006, GREEN LIZARD saw the release of their third record on I Scream Records in Europe. The album is called Las Armas Del Silencio and features 10 solid rock songs which are the best the band ever did. Together with its great artwork, this record is already considered a classic in the history of GREEN LIZARD. The self produced album was recorded by Menno Bakker (NRA, Undeclinable) and Alejandro Londoño (Agresión), mixed by Clif Norrell (REM, The Pixies, Rollins, Faith No More, Mansun, Jeff Buckley) in Los Angeles and mastered at John Golden Mastering. Singer Remi about the recordings: 'This was definitely a new experience for us. By recording in different studios and with different people, we got the best of both worlds in this recording! Although it was extremely fun to produce it ourselves, it was a lot more work than we anticipated and we couldn't have done it without the help of Menno and Alejandro. Of course, after recording two previous albums with a man like Clif taught us a lot about making a record.' GREEN LIZARD's previous albums were put out by Sony Music and sold more than 22.000 copies just in the Netherlands. Singer Remi: 'We never planned on signing to a major but our label got bought up by Sony Music. We sold pretty well and the last record 'Newborn' was supposed to be a European Sony signing but that never happened. We get offers to tour in Europe and the States all the time, but we never had a release there. This time we decided to find a label that can get the record out in all of Europe.' Sellingpoints - played over 800 shows worldwide - sold up to 30,000 copies of their releases - played major European festivals; Lowlands, Pinkpop, Pukkelpop, Roskilde and Sziget - toured on the Vans Warped Tour (USA) in 2003 - did a European tour with Skin (Skunk Anansie) fall 2006 - played in countries like Aruba and Colombia - had a major hitsingle in Holland with video on high rotation in 2001 - has a huge fanbase in the Benelux - is one of the major rockacts of Holland - will especially appeal to fans of Foo Fighters, Sunny Day Real Estate, Open Hand & Helmet Discography 1997 The Nine EP (produced by Jack Endino) 2000 Identity CD (Double T Music/Sony Music, produced by Clif Norrel) 2000 Turn Around single (Double T music/Sony Music, produced by Clif Norrell) 2000 Autumn single (Double T Music/Sony Music, produced by Clif Norrell) 2001 Down 2k1 single (Double T Music/Sony Music, produced by Clif Norrell) 2001 Identity Special Edition 2CD incl.
