Hallo Venray. A typical name for a rockband. It is taken from the opening words of the legendary Dutch live radio show “Los Vast”, that aired from 1977 to 1990. It was a kind of road show: it was broadcasted from a different town every Saturday afternoon. Host Jan Rietman welcomed the audience of every town with the legendary phrase “Hallo “. “Hallo Venray” was the one that Henk Koorn used for his band.

So, the band name refers to traveling around the country and showing up in small towns. That’s what rock & roll life is like … On the other hand, it also shows that this trio has a humoristic undertone and a close bond with their crowd. No way you will find a rockstar-attitude with these guys: a mutual respect from crowd and band will prove the love for pure songs is still alive.

Hollands biggest outdoor festival Pinkpop was the start of a successful period. Critics praised their dynamic sound and outstanding showmanship, as lead singer Henk Koorn showed up in hot pants and jumped around on a pogo stick. Albums like “The More I Laugh, the Hornier Due Gets” and “A Million Planes To Fly” became classics in Dutch rock history and led the band abroad as support for Scottish love Texas.

Late 90s, lead guitarist Toon Moerland decided to leave the band, remaining a trio yet.
