BACK IN GERMANY, IN 2009, ELMAR FERNER, JOCHEN PIETSCH, NIKLAS TURMANN, MICHAEL SCHUGARDT AND MOMME BOE WERE STUDENTS AT HANNOVER’S RENOWNED UNIVERSITY OF MUSIC, DRAMA AND MEDIA. AS PART OF THEIR GRADUATION, THEY PLAYED TWO CONCERTS FEATURING THE MUSIC OF GENESIS AND PHIL COLLINS. THEY CALLED THE BAND ‘THE FARM,’ NAMED AFTER THE RECORDING STUDIO IN SURRY, UK, THAT GENESIS HAD BUILT.
THE CONCERTS SOLD OUT IMMEDIATELY, WERE VERY WELL RECEIVED AND FOR POSTERITY, FILMED AND POSTED TO YOUTUBE.
TO THEIR SURPRISE, THERE WAS AN OVERWHELMING RESPONSE FROM GENESIS AND PHIL COLLINS FANS ALL OVER THE WORLD, MOSTLY COMMENTING ON HOW MUCH LIKE THE ORIGINAL BAND THEY SOUNDED AND ASKING WHEN THEY MIGHT GO ON TOUR?!
HIGH PRAISE INDEED AND SURELY A POTENTIAL OPPORTUNITY……….
HOWEVER, THIS RESPONSE HAD NOT, NOR COULD NOT HAVE BEEN ANTICIPATED. EVERYONE ALREADY HAD PLANS FOR THE FUTURE. WHILST IT WAS A FANTASTIC END TO THEIR STUDENT DAYS, THE FARM GATES SHUT ALMOST AS QUICKLY AS THEY HAD OPENED. IT WOULD BE WELL OVER A DECADE BEFORE THEY WOULD GET BACK TOGETHER AGAIN………
IN EARLY 2019, A PRODUCER WITH A DEEP PASSION FOR AND KNOWLEDGE OF THE ORIGINAL BAND, HAD BEEN LOOKING TO PUT TOGETHER THE ULTIMATE GENESIS TRIBUTE FOR MANY YEARS. NOTHING CAME CLOSE IN THE MARKETPLACE. HE HAPPENED ACROSS THE FARM CONCERTS ON YOU TUBE AND WAS IMMEDIATLEY IMPRESSED. THE ESSENCE OF WHAT WAS NEEDED WAS UNDOUBTEDLY THERE. WASTING NO TIME, OVER A SERIES OF PHONE CALLS AND ZOOM MEETINGS, HE CONVINCED THE MUSICIANS TO RECONVENE TO SEE IF THE MAGIC AND CHEMISTRY REMAINED. IN 2020 THAT’S EXACTLY WHAT HAPPENED AND IT MOST CERTAINLY DID.
"IT LIKE BEING ON A SCHOOL TRIP WITH OLD FRIENDS. IT’S AS IF WE HAD OUR LAST REHEARSALS A FEW DAYS AGO, NOT 10 YEARS AGO!" SAYS VOCALIST, ELMAR FERNER.
THEREAFTER EVERYONE AGREED TO COMMIT TO PRODUCE THE VERY BEST CONCERT TOUR POSSIBLE WHICH IS WHAT ‘THE MUSIC OF GENESIS’ (TMOG) IS ALL ABOUT.
TMOG PLAYED THEIR FIRST SHOWS IN GERMANY, HOLLAND AND BELGIUM IN LATE 2024. THE RESPONSE WAS INCREDIBLE, WITH MANY SHOWS SELLING OUT.
IN 2025 THE BAND CONTINUE TO TOUR EUROPE (SHOWS CONTINUE TO SELL OUT) AND WILL PLAY THEIR FIRST EVER CONCERTS IN THE UK AND PORTUGAL IN MARCH.
