About Me

Velvet Sun originally started as a band in 1978 playing Psychedelic Punk Rock on several locations, doing some demo recordings and gigs, trying to be kinda Flamin' Groovies, Hawkwind or MC5 til 1989. Some tapes were released, but finally the band split up. After spending many years without any co-members and recordings, ex-founder Gheedo startet Velvet Sun again for making some new Psychedelic Loop Experiences since 2003.This Site is dedicated to: Monika, Ellen, Bernd, Otto, Rita, Apple, Ebbie, Marita, Bodo, Harry, Hans-Juergen, Linda, Torsten, Britta, Hella, Martin, Axel, Manny, Hilmar, Norbert, Klaus, Sabine, Stefan, Gerd, Ulla, Anna, Sebastian, Ruth, Angelika, Theo, Paul, Heli, Nicole, Rene, Rick, Kevin, Robert, Richard, Silvia, Mike, Bob, Heinz, Andrea, Rosi, Babs, Jutta, Claudia, Joerg, Gudrun, Werner, Walter, Joe, Fred, Sigrid, Hans, Ralph, Gaby, Uli, Bernhard, Joachim, Marion, Andreas, Karen, Birgit, Nina, Holger, Alex, James, Charlie, Sandy, Winfried, Marlene, Jeff, Pit, Merle, Vander, Andre, Marc, Wolfgang, Peter, Soo Catwoman, Helmut, Klaus D., Jürgen, Andy, Monique, Sheila and John Peel.
