HOG MEETS FROG was born in 2002 as a small, freaky and a little awkward baby, but quickly started to develop and was soon shown off more and more often in front of audiences.
Just as a lizard loses its tail when threatened, HOG MEETS FROG lost first its drum leg and then its guitar arm in the first two years. Quickly the extremities grew back, but unlike the lizard’s tail, the new legs and arm of our little band were an evolutionary step forward and allowed HOG MEETS FROG to gain a higher level.

A few years later — in 2012 — HOG MEETS FROG underwent a metamorphosis and changed until it finally became a drummer chameleon in 2017. And so since these days ARIYAN (guitar) and PETZ (bass, storytelling) have been playing together with alternating drummers.
But the goal is of course to be a complete whole again at some point, to be a fixed power trio.
Over the years, HOG MEETS FROG has played a lot of gigs on many festivals and with many inter- and national bands. . . Bands such as Dog Eat Dog, J. B. O. , KNORKATOR (several times), COPPELIUS (several times), BEATALLICA, Freaky Fuckin’ Weirdoz, TURBOBIER, Gasmac Gilmore, and many more.
Members of the band:
peter ’PETZ‘ schwabl – bass, storytelling
ARIYAN rezaei jahromi – guitar
MIKE schopf / IVO matos / christoph ‘FIZL’ hehn – drums
