A smoky hall, a creaking double bass, an out-of-tune piano and a mysterious snapping of fingers in time with the music from offstage. A man in an elegant suit and hat enters the stage. He stands in front of the microphone and breathes his first words purposefully into the first rows of the audience, who immediately fall under his spell.
Within a few minutes, the hall is boiling and the crowd is dancing exuberantly to music that has been forgotten. "Hauke von Horeis & Die Yoko Udos" affectionately and ironically refer to themselves and their followers as the "Apocalypse Dance Club" - because that is the goal to be achieved: every single person in the hall should dance the devil out of their bodies on this evening and the musical backdrop is a skillful balancing act between swing, jazz and chanson. Your host, Hauke von Horeis, will guide you through this hellish ride.
Hauke von Horeis is the epitome of left/green swing. With his brilliant band "Die Yoko Udos", he not only takes a refreshingly different approach to the sound of the 1920s, but also breathes a certain pinch of punk into the soles of each of his songs. The budding neighbourhood legend playfully manages to bridge the gap between "political incorrectness" and charming singalongs that will really get everyone in the audience on the dance floor.
So, ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls and everyone in between,
be warned and shine up your dancing sandals, because when 'Hauke von Horeis & Die Yoko Udos' invite you to dance at the Nochtspeicher in St. Pauli on 01.02.25, no eye will be left dry, no heart unbroken and no mouth unkissed.
20s chic is the dress code for the evening.
