Olaf Rupp, Jahrgang 1963 begann mit zwölf Jahren, Gitarre zu spielen. Als Autodidakt interessierte ihn neben dem Repertoire der Klassischen Gitarre und der RockMusik am meisten die freie Improvisation. In den 90er Jahren spielte Rupp vor allem improvisierte PopMusik mit Bands, wie EMAK BAKIA, BEASTIESHOPBEACH (GROB) oder STOL (Kitty-Yo). Aber er trat auch mit anderen Musikern auf, wie etwa Lol Coxhill, Tony Buck, Joe Williamson, Rudi Mahall, Sainkho Namtchylak, Paul Lovens, oder Butch Morris. In letzter Zeit konzentrierte er sich hauptsächlich auf Solo Performances mit der akustischen Gitarre und veröffentlichte zwei SOLO-CDs bei FMP und bei GROB.
Born in 1963, Olaf Rupp began to play guitar at the age of twelve. He was his own teacher and more than classical guitar repertoire and Rock music especially free improvisation was always most important. In the 90s he was mainly interested in improvised pop music with bands such as EMAK BAKIA, BEASTIESHOPBEACH (GROB) and STOL (Kitty-Yo). But he also performed with Lol Coxhill, Tony Buck, Joe Williamson, Rudi Mahall, Sainkho Namtchylak, Paul Lovens or Butch Morris. In recent years now he focuses on acoustic guitar solo performance.

Tony Buck was born in Sydney in 1962. Tony is regarded as one of Australia's most creative and adventurous exports, with vast experience across the globe. He has been involved in a highly diverse array of projects. Apart from The Necks, he is probably best known as leader of hardcore/impro band PERIL.
Early in his musical life, after having graduated from the New South Wales Conservatorium of Music, he became very involved in the jazz scene in Australia, often touring with visiting international artists such as Vincent Herring, Clifford Jordan, Mickey Tucker, Branford Marsalis and Ernie Watts, as well as Australians Mark Simmonds, Paul Grabowsky, The Catholics, Sandy Evans and Dale Barlow.
Following time spent in Japan, where he formed PERIL with Otomo Yoshihide and Kato Hideki, Tony moved to Europe, and has involved himself in many projects there, including the development of new "virtual" MIDI controllers at STEIM in Amsterdam.
Tony has played, toured or recorded with, among others, Jon Rose, Nicolas Collins, Tenko, John Zorn, Tom Cora, Phil Minton, Haino, Switchbox, The Machine for Making Sense, Ne Zhdall, The EX, Peter Brotzmann, Hans Reichel, The Little Red Spiders, Subrito Roy Chowdury, Clifford Jordan, Kletka Red, Han Bennink, Shelley Hirsch, Wayne Horvitz, Palinckx, and Ground Zero.
