Jadu Heart are Diva-Sachy Jeffrey and Alex Headford, from London and Huddersfield respectively. Following in the footsteps of cult boy/girl bands before them such as Pixies, My Bloody Valentine and Belle and Sebastian, they have grown outside of the music industry slowly building their own world and crafting their own unique perspective. Having moved from electronic shoegaze to psych-rock to grungy lo-fi across their two EPs and two albums it's hard to guess where they will go next sonically but their army of cult-like followers have learned to trust them. Despite little radio support or hype they sell out shows around the world to an audience of die hard fans & consistently get 100,000 streams a day. Theirs is a world built between two people endlessly collaborating to create meaning, develop philosophies and communicate complex emotions with melody.

New Zealand hard rock outfit the Datsuns blazed onto the scene in the early 2000s with their nofrills take on sleazy garage rock, echoing a sound similar to contemporaries like the White Stripes, Jet, and Wolfmother. Their self-titled 2002 debut would prove to be their big breakthrough and peak in popularity in the mainstream, riding high on singles "MF from Hell" and "Lady."

Although subsequent efforts made less of a splash overseas, the band remained a Top 20 presence at home for 2004's Outta Sight/Outta Mind and 2006's Smoke & Mirrors. They returned to the charts in 2014 with their sixth LP, Deep Sleep. In 2021, they released their seventh set, Eye to Eye. And are making their big comeback in Europe, in the spring of 2023 !

The Datsuns are a New Zealand-based hard rock outfit hailing from Cambridge. Formed in 2000, the band consists of frontman and bassist Rudolf de Borst, guitarists Phil Somervell and Christian Livingstone, and drummer Ben Cole.

Known for their blend of heavy metal and old-style garage rock, The Datsuns are one of NZ’s most popular hard rock exports, owning fans in Metallica, Disturbed, and Marilyn Manson - all fo whom they have shared the stage with. In autumn 2014, The Datsuns return with new album ‘Deep Sleep’ and a UK tour - check below to find tickets!

Ein Abend der psychedelischen Sphären und Spiritualität. Vier Bands teilen denselben Wunsch: Menschen berühren und ihre Gedankenwelt erweitern. Eine Reise durch die Seele und das Selbst eines jeden Zuhörenden.

**Lev Radagan**

Lev Radagan ist ein Berliner Psychedelic-Rock-Duo, bestehend aus Sxantana (Redlake Circus; Sanzara) an der Skateboard-Gitarre, Gitarren & Gesang und Jair Paredes (Korre Sangre) am Schlagzeug. Nachdem letztes Jahr ihr Debütalbum “Witches” erschien, touren sie Anfang 2023 in Mexico und den USA, Ende des Jahres in Australien.

Durch ihren einzigartigen psychedelischen Sound und die Verschmelzung von groovigen Rock'n'Roll-Riffs, sanften Blues-Licks und mystischen orientalischen Atmosphären kreieren die ursprünglichen Mexikaner hypnotische Melodien, die einen die eigenen Gedanken neu entdecken lassen.

**Triptonus**

Zwei Gitarren, Bass, Schlagzeug, Djembe, Didgeridoo, Wavedrum und Sampler – Psychedelic Rock, Percussion-Grooves und experimenteller Electronica

In a time when American folk music has lost touch with its bloody roots, King Dude seeks to illuminate the darkness with sex, death, love, insanity, and Lucifer’s light. Since 2006, his devotional rock ‘n’ roll has been both the medium and the message; his throaty baritone and devilishly visceral songwriting the tools he wields to ignite the fiery spirit of revelation in all who encounter him.

Thanks to past releases on Dais, Avant!, Bathetic, Clan Destine, and Ván records, a number of high-profile festival appearances, and a relentless tour schedule—often alongside the likes of Ghost and Earth—the silver-tongued singer/songwriter has found an ever-expanding global audience with whom to share his prophetic vision of hope and salvation: a willing congregation whose raised voices and stomping feet reliably turn his shows into Luciferian tent revivals. King Dude is a blue-eyed Mephistopheles with an acoustic guitar; he dresses like Johnny Cash and sings like he cut in line in front of Robert Johnson at the crossroads. His voice can shift from haunting and vulnerable to thunderous near-Biblical fury in the space of a breath, marrying the sacred to the profane with pomp, circumstance, and a curled lip. He sings about death the way he sings about fucking. With inspiration torn from country, blues, Americana, and British folk (and a background in heavy metal), King Dude’s raw, hypnotic hymns channel the past while staring straight ahead into a revelatory future.

Canadian Heavy Metal legends EXCITER are returning to Europe in May and June 2023 to celebrate the 40th anniversary of their classic debut album "Heavy Metal Maniac". Widely regarded as one of the most influential albums of the genre, "Heavy Metal Maniac" set a benchmark for fast and furious metal that still resonates with fans worldwide.  
With its driving rhythms, scorching solos, and powerful vocals, "Heavy Metal Maniac" helped shape the sound of the emerging Heavy Metal scene and has inspired generations of musicians since its release in 1983. Dan Beehler, drummer and singer of EXCITER, says:  
"40 years later and the legacy of ‘Heavy Metal Maniac’ is as strong as ever. We can't wait to play these classic songs and share in the celebration with our brothers and sisters across Europe with our biggest production yet. Thank you for your dedication and support maniacs, we'll see you very soon...POUND IT!"

EXCITER will be performing select shows across Europe with special guests Artillery from Denmark and Blood Star from the US. Fans can expect an unforgettable night of metal mayhem, featuring classic tracks from "Heavy Metal Maniac" and other fan favourites.

On & On: José James Sings Badu

When José James released No Beginning No End 2 (2020), a collaborative effort that paired the forward-looking vocalist with a global all-star cast including Ledisi, Aloe Blacc and Laura Mvula, it was apparent that the genre-defying artist was back to stake his claim as the jazz singer for the hip-hop generation. In that light his new project, On & On: José James Sings Badu finds James throwing down the gauntlet on the past 100 years of jazz singing while charting a path forward for the culture.

“It’s simple” James explains. “Jazz singing has always been about interpreting the highest level of standards of your time. And for my generation Erykah Badu has been one of the most innovative and incisive songwriters. Her work has proven to be groundbreaking in a social, musical and artistic sense.”

The album, produced by James with contributions from like-minded musicians Big Yuki (A Tribe Called Quest), Ben Williams (Kamasi Washington) and Jharis Yokley (My Brightest Diamond) investigates the breadth of Badu’s iconic catalog, from her groundbreaking debut album Baduizm to her contemporary masterpieces New Amerykah Pt. 1 and 2. But make no mistake: This is thoroughly a jazz album. Conceived in the spirit of Herbie Hancock’s River: The Joni Letters, James artfully draws upon his experiences with modern masters McCoy Tyner, Robert Glasper and Flying Lotus to create a new sonic landscape through an improvisatory lens.

James also builds on his reputation as a modern jazz tastemaker by introducing featured horn players Ebban Dorsey and Diana Dzhabbar. “As an artist and performer Badu has consistently created opportunities for young artists both on and off her stage,” James explains. “It only made sense to include the next generation.”

In January of 1988, amidst the frozen badlands of Västerås, Sweden, a gang of Vikings decided to heat things up by forming a rockabilly trio. They would call themselves the Go Getters. Now, years later, the ensuing inferno rages like an oil fire out of control.

Led by standup drummer and chief songwriter Peter Sandberg on lead vocals, the Go Getters have electrified audiences around the world with their own custom blend of ass-kickin’, blues-marinated, high-octane, mega-watt rockabilly boogie.

After appearing on several compilation albums in the late 1980’s, the Go Getters released their first single, You Don’t Love Me, in 1992. The platter soon topped the European roots music charts and led to the release of their debut LP, Real Gone!; considered a milestone in modern Euro rockabilly music for its heavy infusion of the blues.

The Go Getters' mix of blues, rockabilly, punk and country generates a positive party atmosphere that will keep the beer-taps open and toes tappin' all night at any bar or event.

Les Reines Prochaines (Fränzi Madörin, Muda Mathis, Sus Zwick) mit ihrem brandaktuellen Konzertprogramm: neue Songs und performative Beiträge, eine Reise durch die schlimmsten Befürchtungen und grössten Hoffnungen unserer Zeit. Rubination, eine Wortschöpfung, die unsere gegenwärtige Gefühlslage beschreibt. Rubination verschmelzt die Begriffe ruminieren (grübeln) mit der tief roten Farbe des Rubins. Grübeln steht für das Nachdenken, aber auch für das Nichthandeln, sich Drehen an Ort. Das satte Rubinrot für königlichen Power und Zuversicht.

Wir fragen uns, was hat Alltag mit Natur, Weltwirtschaft mit Körper, Gerüche mit dem limbischen System zu tun? Und was Karpfen mit Katastrophen, Gewohnheiten mit Marketingbefragungen, blaue Tinte mit dem Unsichtbaren und Fleisch und Fliegen.

THE BRIEFS are back in Berlin!!!  
Original line-up, baby! Over twenty years have zipped by, and The Briefs are as frantic, energetic, and snotty as ever. Like a scud missile from outer space, the band’s debut album, “Hit After Hit,” set out to destroy the new Millennium’s flaccid alt-rock scene—and, in turn—inspired two decades of raucous radioactive fallout. Sewing together a tattered tapestry of 70s-style punk—with a nod toward Dangerhouse Records, DEVO, Thrasher Magazine, and ABBA—these iconic bleach blonde brutes have urged countless kids to grab a junk guitar, a pair of second-hand sunglasses, and a bottle of peroxide.

THE STITCHES from California will join the tour plus another very special guest to be announced very soon!

EvilDead was founded in 1987 with the aim of making heavy music in true thrash metal style. Right off the bat they made a lasting impression with a unique blend of speed and thrash riffs, backed by frenzied drumming and a thundering bass. Lyrically EvilDead dwelled on political on social themes, the threat of nuclear war and even a dash of horror. In 1988 the EP ‘Rise Above’ generated a strong underground buzz but it wasn’t until one year later that the seminal album ‘Annihilation of Civilization’ took the world by storm. ‘The Underworld’ featured a more metal-oriented sound but in spite of positive reviews EvilDead folded in 1992. Fast-forward to 2009 when founding members Juan Garcia (guitarist, also a member of Agent Steel and Body Count), Rob Alaniz (drums) and Mel Sanchez (bass) responded to the persistent outcry of the masses to resurrect EvilDead. After a string of concerts things quietened down again but several years later the LA-based band made another comeback – and this time original vocalist Phil Flores had rejoined the fold. The release of ‘United $tate$ of Anarchy’ (2020) not only sealed the deal on the comeback but also ended a 29-year drought in terms of new output.
