Björn Heuser - 30 Jahre - Das Jubiläumskonzert

In the organizer's words:

Admission: 17:00
seated

The "Cologne sing-along king" Björn Heuser is back on tour - and this year there is something very special to celebrate!

For no less than thirty years, the likeable and quintessentially Cologne singer-songwriter has been on the road, singing along with the people, writing songs for himself and many other performers in the cathedral city and is considered a "professional Cologne singer".

When he wrote his first song in a makeshift basement studio in 1996 and - initially for five years with his father - got people singing at small events, little Björn would never have dreamed that he would even get "from the little pub boy to the arena and stadium".

In the meantime, "der Mann met däm Hoot" has almost 800 (!!) sing-along concerts on Friday evenings in the Gaffel am Dom, has been filling the LanxessArena for 10 years with his "Kölle singt" format - where he also set the attendance record in 2018 with 20,216 tickets sold - and is considered a figurehead and pioneer of today's numerous sing-along movements in Cologne and nationwide. Heuser is the original. He was the first to get people singing Cologne songs with just a guitar. In the pub, in the brewery, even regularly in front of fifty thousand people in the Rheinenergie Stadium at the big Christmas sing-along or the home games of FC Köln.

Reason enough to celebrate the "30 years" with a corresponding anniversary tour - and of course with a new album! In addition to his function as a lead singer, Björn Heuser is also a busy songwriter for himself (12 studio albums!) and other performers. Unlike the brewery concerts and party formats, these cabaret evenings are seated and the focus is not only on singing along, but also on listening. Heuser's charming, humorous and informative announcements and stories about the songs are the salt in the soup! The setlist includes the great Cologne hits, but also new songs from his pen.

Free lyric booklets for the audience make it easier to sing along to the newer songs and ensure a lot of fun when singing together. You can sway, sing and laugh!
