20 Summers Left - "Pop classics rocked up!"

In the organizer's words:

What felt like an eternity ago (in the early 80s), some of the band members had already made music together or played in the rival band from the neighboring village. In 2001, with the addition of a few allies from Anglo-Saxon & the "New World", the band took the step towards the professional camp with fanfare, drums & trumpets, a record deal and a European tour. All very well. But after 4 albums, 2 tours, various festival appearances (yes: including the main stage in Wacken) we realized:

"Somebody open the window ... it smells!" It was time to do something new. In 2018, the band got back together with the original singer and also hired the frontman of the former rival band so that the whole thing could be served up with variety, a fragrant sound and a real kick: "Hömma! 120 minutes of full-steam party, get it?"

However, it would be too dull to warble along to the selected songs from the 70s to the present day, the originals of which, at best, don't feature any distorted guitars, and the band certainly didn't want to do that.

As all the musicians have their roots in Hottentot music, it was more or less obvious to transform these songs into "rock monsters". The direction was clear: "pop classics rocked up", according to the band's credo.

"We have a lot of fun interpreting songs from Abba and Huey Lewis to Lady Gaga and the Black Eyed Peas in our own way and with our own sound: powerful and with a good dose of punch, without losing respect for the original! After all, we're talking about nothing less than world hits by world stars!"

The result is a bouquet of colorful melodies that everyone knows, but no one has ever performed in this way on the boards that mean the world!
