Band,
Classical
A.k.a. C.O.B.S
Red Dragon started in 1982 (the eighties) by the Jacobs-brothers René, Kees and Huub. Although the bandmembers ware influenced by Saxon, Scorpions, Black Sabbath, Rainbow, Uriah Heep, Deep Purple, Kansas etc.. the band has its own sound because everyone wanted to put his favourite band-influences in the music. “Keep on rockin’, Keep on Dragon” was the slogan in the eighties. The music was straigt-on and pure hardrock. Not too simple, not too symphonic but it rocked. The message was: don’t go worrying about social problems but live your life and enjoy the music. Gigs were given in Nederland (especially Zeeland) en Belgium. They stood as openingshow for Uriah Heep, Bodine and Vengeance and headlining some festivals. After the reuniongigs in café Extase (2006) en Little Devil (2007) in Tilburg (The Netherlands) the band decided to continue. The songs they play now are a selection from songs from the different bands they played in (Red Dragon, Frontiers, C.O.B.S). After 5 years and the search for a new vocalist, Red Dragon goes on stage in Tilburg-The Netherland, Little Devil, April 5th 2013 with their new vocalist (Guido Theuns). In september 2013 Kees (organ/synths) decided to quit the band in case of hearing-problems. A very tough decision he took with pain in his heart. But............. RED DRAGON STILL ROCKS ON! Red Dragon 2013: Guido Theuns – zang; René Jacobs – gitaar; Huub Jacobs – bass; Theo van de Heuvel – drums
