Olli Roth

In the organizer's words:

Olli ROTH with his new solo program: "An evening with Olli ROTH" now on tour in event locations and music clubs in Germany and Europe. The three-hour "personality show" around the powerful-voiced singer from the wild south presents a cross-section of 35 years of songwriting!

Olli ROTH, singer and guitarist, is a "working musician" through and through. On the road as a professional musician since 1984 and more than 5000 times live on stage! That adds up to a lot of songs and stories and as he himself emphasizes again and again: "A good song wants to be played!" Growing up with the music of the great American songwriters and influenced by the sound of blues, rock and country music, he started writing songs at the age of 14. He found musical influences in greats such as Daniel Lanois, Willy DeVille, Chris Whitley and John Hiatt. In his own songs, he skillfully blends all these stylistic elements into his own:
"ACOUSTIC-COUNTRY-ROCKING-BLUES"

The acoustic guitar and his outstanding voice are his trademark! Emotional ballads, uptempo songs or sometimes heavy, stomping swamp grooves... Handmade music that comes straight from the soul according to the motto: "LET THE MUSIC DO THE TALKING!"

With 200-250 gigs a year, Olli ROTH is one of the best-booked and most versatile singers in Germany. He has been on stage with greats like Bobby Kimball (TOTO), Roger Hodgson (Supertramp), Chris Norman (ex-SMOKIE) or the HOOTERS, drank coffee and chatted with JAMES BROWN or PAUL SIMON and played at festivals with URIAH HEEP, ROGER CHAPMAN, ROXETTE and MANFRED MANN'S EARTHBAND.

He is immediately at home on any stage and manages to captivate his audience from the very first minute! One of Olli ROTH's most captivating characteristics is his incredible joy of playing and the musical dedication with which he turns every cover version into a song of his own. Whether an acoustic session or a large band, his gifted voice, professionalism and charisma make every concert a highlight for the soul and ears!
