50 years ago, Barclay James Harvest and founder Les Horloyd started their musical journey in Manchester. Probably the most subtle representatives of Classical Rock came together in 1967 and have been delighting audiences with their melancholic classical rock and esoteric spherical sounds. Now the British band is going on tour in Germany again.
Achim Reichel, the father of German rock music, celebrates his 80th birthday in January 2024 and looks back on a life’s work of unparalleled, innovative versatility. To mark the occasion, he is releasing both a live double CD with the tour repertoire and a single with his remake of the Hildegard Knef classic »Aber schön war es doch«.
In 1969, Fleetwood Mac sold more records than the Beatles or the Rolling Stones. The band’s album »Rumours« from 1977 is one of the most successful albums in music history. No wonder that a huge fan base rallied around the band – and still does today! »Rumours of Fleetwood Mac« was established in 1999 to pay tribute to this unique band that shaped the zeitgeist of the 60s to the 90s. To call this band, consisting of seven musicians, a tribute band would be too short-sighted. »It’s about their music« is their tour motto, which they decided on several years ago. In this sense, they try to perform the music of Fleetwood Mac as faithfully as possible and, above all, to revive the spirit of this worldwide celebrated band and its time. The love of Fleetwood Mac’s music has been embodied by the Liverpool-based band for the past 24 years as they tour America, Canada, the UK and Europe – and even with the blessing of the original band’s co-founder and drummer, Mick Fleetwood: »An extraordinary emotive performance of Fleetwood Mac!«
The members of the Hamburg band TOYTOY describe themselves as a »musical gathering of four virtuoso instrumentalists«. Together, they regularly fill clubs and concert halls across Germany with their fiery bass, hypnotic guitars and bold percussive sounds. Famous for their unique vibe and energetic live shows, the musicians delight audiences with a fantastic mix of jazz, soul and hip-hop. Their concert series »[rejazzed]«, developed in partnership with Jazzhouse Hamburg, is also going down a treat, causing a sensation with their versions of iconic albums from the fields of hip-hop and pop culture. They regularly collaborate with musical partners such as Nils Landgren, Fünf Sterne deluxe and the NDR Bigband. TOYTOY now celebrate the release of their eagerly anticipated debut album inside the Elbphilharmonie, after rocking the Elbphilharmonie forecourt back in 2021, when the musicians delivered an unforgettable evening of music in the open air at the »Hope’n’Air« festival.
With a title like »Nackt«, the band Kuult presents an incredible musical soul striptease. Frontman Chris Werner opens up to his audience like never before. The band has matured and grown up. Existential worries often make them rethink. More thoughtful, more settled and yet (or precisely because of this) Kuult’s positive up-tempo numbers still shoot out of the starting blocks as usual and then the cool rollercoaster ride begins.
In this affectionate homage, the West End success faithfully brings the unmistakeable sound of Paul Simon and Art Garfunkel to the stage. With global hits such as »The Sound of Silence«, »Bridge over Troubled Water« and »Mrs Robinson«, the show takes the audience on a thrilling journey through time, following the careers of the likeable and philosophical folk-rock stars!
Smokie has been thrilling audiences in sold-out concert halls with brilliant shows for over 40 years now. Songs like »If You Think You Know How to Love Me«, »Don’t Play Your Rock’n’Roll to Me«, »It’s Your Life«, »Needles & Pins« or »Oh Carol« are radio hits and delight fans all over the world.
Two pop-cultural icons come together here: With their joint live programme »Das Letzte Mahl«, Xatar and heavytones break down genre boundaries and mix trademark soul/funk/jazz sound with hard rap from the street. When explosive brass sections, driving percussion, funky guitars and vintage keyboard pads meet gangster rap with ruthless lyrics, it promises nothing less than a new level of hip hop and energetic live entertainment.
Singer-songwriter Konstantin Wecker delivers a follow-up to his acclaimed programme »Utopia« in 2023 with »Utopia 2.0 – Wir werden weiter träumen« (We will keep on dreaming). Wecker has long been dreaming of a life free of domination. That dream is far from over, and the poetic and political visionary’s longing for boundless peace and freedom endures. The singer and composer is now reviving his programme »Utopia« in a 2.0 version. As the title suggests, this is not simply a sequel, but a substantial further development of the 2021 programme – with never-before-heard arrangements as well as his latest thoughts and poems.
Never quite belonging to any one genre of music, the songs of VNV Nation (aka Ronan Harris) blend poetic and contemplative lyrics with a sound that ranges from melodic dance beats and indie-electronic anthems to haunting ballads and post-classical soundtrack pieces. The shows are legendary for their energy and positive emotion, attracting a loyal fan base to concerts and festivals across Europe and North America. For this concert, Ronan Harris is accompanied by the Philharmonie Leipzig, known for its film music concerts and interpretations of highlights that range from the classical to the Romantic eras. The programme includes some of VNV Nation’s most popular orchestral pieces as well as works from the upcoming album »Music for Orchestra Vol. 2«, which will be released with the tour. Special guest band Diary of Dreams also takes the stage, perfectly complementing the programme with atmospheric dark wave combined with elements of electro and future pop.
