Moore and More

Neil Carter meeting Frank Altpeter Dec. 2015

The band got ennobled in August 2015, when guitarist Bernd Koegler acquired Gary Moore's very own The Heritage CM150 prototype guitar that he used during the 1989 / 1990 tours. Bernd plays it on stage again now. This guitar can be seen on the DVD Live in Montreux 1990.

Since July 2016 Bernd even owns another one of Gary Moore’s guitars: the one that became especially famous through the reknown Wikipedia-photo, the Gibson 1957 Les Paul Goldtop VOS Darkback Reissue, to bee seen and heard on the AVO Sessios of 2008 .

Since January 2016 keyboarder and singer Frank Altpeter plays Neil Carter’s Korg M3 and Roland Juno Di synthesizers including the original soundpatches he used on Gary Moore's last tour in 2010 - as seen on the DVD Live in Montreux 2010. The band is continuously supported by Neil Carter, original keyboard player, guitarist and singer of the Gary Moore Band during the rock era in the 1980s and in 2010. Thus the band is able to re-create the songs as close to the originals as possible.

Moore and More authentically re-create Gary Moore's manifold compositions as well as his virtuoso guitar work. This earned the band high appreciation by rock and blues fans. Their many concerts take place in clubs, halls and open airs and always find an enthusiastic audience. Moore and More's extensive repertoire features all of his hits like Still Got The Blues, Walking By Myself, Parisienne Walkways, Friday On My Mind, Over The Hills And Far Away, as well as numerous others from his 35-year career - but also less known titles from his time with Colosseum II, Thin Lizzy, the Greg Lake Band and BBM, that surely will electrify connoisseurs and fans. The existing rock and blues sets are continuously expanded and varied. Thus every gig is a new exciting experience. This way Moore and More have been able to build up a devoted fan base that follows their gigs. The members of Moore and More are: Bernd Koegler (guitars, vocals) - the exceptional guitarist who lets Gary Moore resurrect - if you keep your eyes closed … At the same time he is the signboard of the band: no-one celebrates rock and blues the way he does it - now on Gary's very own guitars. Read more about Bernd’s guitars here! Frank Altpeter (vocals, keyboards) - the band's powerful voice, strong or sensitive and soft - just as it suits the song. At the same time he provides the manifold arrangements for Gary's multifaceted rock and blues titles, using the 2010 original sounds and instruments of Neil Carter. Read more about Frank’s keyboards here! Reiner Heinzen (drums) - looks back onto a decades long career in numerous bands. His heart beats for the blues - but if it comes to playing rock, he will lay a powerful basis to the band's rhythm section. Jochen Reinsberg (bass) - well-trained in many bands loves and lives the groove. Together with Reiner Heinzen he delivers an inimitable impellent basis for Bernd's extraordinary guitar work.
