ATNG was formed by a spontaneous action of some band members of Authority Brass International. These band members wanted to try out something new and exciting. By putting all effort in a band and make it humonkus. Bottom-line we just wanted to make music. But this time explicit Soca music, the music we grow up with.
To come up with a catching name, we used the most obvious. We were Authority Brass so we made it Authority The Next Generation.
During a long trip to a gig abroad, the plans were made and there was a band. The band was formed and consisted of 9 people The most fabulous gig we had, was our opening gig. We were the last lap for the Summer Carnival in Rotterdam in 1999.
