The guys playing in NRA today:
|
Aziz: The singer of the band. He played in GREEN before NRA started in 1989. He deals with a shop of record and clothes in Amsterdam, "The independent Outlet" which is also a mail-order system, but far behind SUGAR & SPICE whom he's quite amazed. NRA wouldn't be NRA anymore if Aziz leaves the band such his voice is specific to the NRA sound. If you see Pierre of the Burning Heads faking to have a mohawk with his hands while he's playing, just know it's an allusion to the always perfect Aziz' haircut.

Mr Feaver: The new and youngest band member from Rotterdam. His real name is Tjeerd. He plays drums and drew the picture of Access Only, the 10" vynil edited on Hannibal records. Tell him he looks like Topper Headon, and he will be happy though it's not the same drumstyle. The least you can say about him is that he's really a nice guy to talk with. He also plays in Beaver Feaver (7" edited on Little People Records, a label from Rotterdam), and spit on those who don't dance. Have fun if you don't wanna have spits in your face!

Gwynn: The bassist of the band. Here from the beginning. The smallest member but not the least. "He could be your father" aziz said to me.

| Jean a.k.a. Orange a.k.a. Copymaster: The guitarist. He stopped playing bass in the other (Dutch) punk monument Human Alert, he 's replaced by Diane. He plays in Pan Am too, but he's also known as Copymaster for his solo record on Little People Records, and you should find these songs in MP3 files because as he says "i only have like 3 fans, so..." He's also here from the beginning and "is responsible for the most songs and lyrics. As a band, somebody comes up with an idea and then we all give our view on that and do our part till it becomes a NRA song!"says Gwynn. | |
The guys who played in NRA before:
Svengus: Played guitar from "Surf city Amsterdam" to "new recovery", he also plays in Human Alert, that's why he left the band about one year ago. NRA is now the alchemy of 4 members just like when they began in 1989.
Pepijn: Drums from "is this for real?" to "new recovery". Cover design for "is this for real?". Now, he turns to slower things like jazz.
Menno Bakker: He still plays with the band for additional guitar, and back vocals. He also replaced some other members at guitar in some shows. He's the sound engineer of the band since "Surf city amsterdam", it means the four last NRA albums got his touch for eternity. He's also the singer of another Dutch band, Pan Am. He's also known as the sound-engineer of the famous Bunt's studio in Utrecht.
Slick: Drummer a few weeks. He left the band to concentrate on his other band HI-DRAMATIC. Replaced by Mr Feaver.
