Michael Schenker Group / Biography

Origin:

Decades:

The Michael Schenker Group (or shortly MSG) is a guitar-oriented hard rock band formed in 1979 by the former Scorpions and UFO guitarist Michael Schenker. From 1986-1992, the band was known as the McAuley Schenker Group, because Schenker wanted to split the writing process with vocalist Robin McAuley.

The music is best described as mostly melodic hard rock with progressive undertones. Schenker is famous for his half-black, half-white Gibson Flying V and for his unorthodox approach to lead guitar. He is sponsored by Dean Guitars and is well known in the neo-classical genre.
