About Me

The Green Bees went back to the basics of rock. Simple and raw riffs, pounding drums, a growling bass and primalscream vocals. Animallike music as nature intented.

The band gave 10 short but explosive performances between february and september 2007 after which they went back into hibernation in their hive. One day The Green Bees may fly again...
