Mr. Hurley & The Powder Monkeys - "SOS"

Special guests: Vroudenspil & MacPiet

With their brand new album "SOS", the folk buccaneers: inside Mr. Hurley & Die Pulveraffen set sail for another musical adventure. The much-celebrated band, known for their rousing melodies, humorous lyrics and energetic live performances, present an explosive mix of party-loving sea shanties, pirate romance and raw stories from a world full of adventure.

The album "SOS" is a true project of the band's heart, mastering the balancing act between traditional folk and modern rock sounds. With powerful rhythms, rousing folk melodies and powerful vocals, the band takes its crew on a journey through rough times - often humorous, sometimes thoughtful, but always authentic.

The new songs deal with the classic themes of joie de vivre, adventure and the perhaps not entirely historically accurate everyday life of pirates on the Caribbean Sea. The title song, "SOS", does not call for help in a deadly emergency, but rather implores the captain to quickly hand over the wages so that the sailors can finally spend them in the harbor bars. In "Pirates: Megageil!" the band musically explores their motivation for making pirate music of all things and "Zu Fuß" is Pegleg Peggy's song of praise to the advantages of her wooden leg. Once again, the band shows that clever lyrics and the ability not to take themselves and the scene too seriously are among their greatest strengths.

Musically, the Pulveraffen go one better - the sound is rockier and more powerful than on previous albums, without losing sight of their folk roots, which repeatedly play themselves forward through striking accordion instrumentals. Mr. Hurley & The Powder Monkeys prove once again that they are not only on board with their fans, but also master every journey musically.

The album is available in all common formats and is offered on digital platforms as well as on CD and vinyl. If you want to experience the band live, you shouldn't miss the album tour, during which the band will raid 17 cities in Germany, Austria and Switzerland from October to December 2025 - the pirate crew promises a show full of energy and passion!
