Biografie

Originally starting as friends from their highschool days, Ivo and Florian bonded with their passion for music. Of course they were having their rock ´n roll freams like any other young kid; living the rock star life. But is was their love of music that fueled their ambitions.
A chance meeting at a local tennis court with Garry ended up cranking Green Day tunes together. The only thing missing in out brand new group was a bass player. But luck was on its way during the hot summer of 1995. Not only was the weather good enough to play tunes next to the pool, that pool delivered them a bass player named Bjorn as well as the name Doofus. They saw that on a t-shirt some gorgeous girl was wearing at the pool.
Doofus... catchy and simple.
1996 consisted of playing over 50 gigs at every nook and cranny. And when Bjorn decided to leave the band, Ivo picked up the bass he stole from his father and Doofus went on the road as a trio. Some naysayers were convinced that our boys were too young, but a solid live reputation proved them wrong. This resulted in playing well attended shows and winning several talent awards. Winning the Emergenza award even got them to play on a festival in Germany. Their first show abroad in Hamburg also got them their first record deal.
They worked on their first album with producer Erwin Musper (Van Halen, Scorpions, Anouk, David Bowie). A full album was recorded and a single was released. This single release party held in Paradiso, Amsterdam was the first ever live internetcast done in the Benelux.
Due to bad management again, the album never saw the light of day.
To start over with a clean slate, the band fired the management and got themselves a new name. During 2004/2005 a home recording studio was built located just off EXIT 31 and a fourth member was added. It was Garry´s brother David who teamed up with our friends. And these soon-to-be fab four called themselves EXIT 31.
2005 saw them playing several shows supporting Within Temptation and Di-rect. And then Erwin Musper gave them a call. Erwin had started a new record company in the USA and he offered Exit 31 a record deal on his YEAYEAYEAH record label.
And here we are in 2006 and we´re gearing up for the release of the debut album of EXIT 31.
