Biography

Future Tense started at the end of the 70s. The band members played in many bands before and played all types of rock. At a certain point a new band was started and called New Spring Band, featuring Michiel van Loef on guitars, Tjerk Kiesel on bass, Rico Hoek on drums and Peter Ockhuyzen on vocals. Soon they had to change the name, because the initials ‘NSB’ were the same as the Dutch Naziparty in WWII. After 6 month Rico was sent to another band and Ruud Beunder came to replace him on the drums. After some thinking Michiel came up with the name Future Tense. ‘Future’ was meaning their ambition to the future and ‘Tense’ was the tension, which comes along the way. Soon they played live in their region, which was around Woerden, not really a big city, and it can described as a village in the countryside, they rehearsed in a farm.
