THE PICTUREBOOKS und LOW VOLTS

In the organizer's words:

The powerful duo The Picturebooks mix rock, blues, alternative and country in their very own way and have left their mark with over 400 international shows in the last five years. With four albums under their belt and their fifth album "Albuquerque" released in 2024, Fynn Grabke (guitar/vox) and Philipp Mirtschink (drums/percussion) have more than earned their success. They have played halls of all sizes and shared stages with the likes of Clutch, Black Stone Cherry, Monster Truck, Highly Suspect, Kadavar, Iron Maiden's Steve Harris, Blues Pills and many more. In 2024, The Picturebooks toured with The Pretenders, Wolfmother and Boss Hoss.

The list of people who have worked with The Picturebooks reads like a who's who of rock: Chrissie Hynde (The Pretenders), Lzzy Hale (Halestorm), Dennis Lyxzen (Refused), Tom Robinson (Black Stone Cherry), Neil Fallon (Clutch), Ryan Sinn (The Distillers) and Elin Larsson (Blues Pills) to name but a few.

The Picturebooks split their time between music, skateboards and motorcycles, sharing every moment along the way; The Picturebooks have become more than a band. The duo has gained an enthusiastic and loyal fan base who are as devoted to the band for their lifestyle as they are for their music. Their fifth studio album "Albuquerque" is the soundtrack to their life on the endless road, a blend of musical styles they've absorbed along the way and spit out on this album as only they can.

Low Volts is known for its fuzzy, dirty blues-rock 'n' soul one-man performances. Armed with just a gritty old slide guitar, a thunderous tambourine-laden kick drum and gritty, howling vocals, Low Volts creates a dense and swampy sound that matches the power of a four-piece band.
