TIGERMILCH - "Gestern fühlte sich auch nicht früher an" Tour 2025

In the organizer's words:

TIGERMILCH Second album, fresh live dates: The indie band TIGERMILCH is going on the "Gestern fühlte sich auch nicht früher an" tour in 2025 and has brand new material in its luggage for the big headliner tour!

The four-piece group from Cologne, which has long since established itself as an insider tip in the German-speaking music scene, will be touring Germany, Austria and Switzerland from spring. Fans can look forward to fresh songs from the upcoming second studio album, which will also be released in 2025, in the live sets: TIGERMILCH have polished the new music to a high gloss in long nights of rehearsals and have high expectations: the band wants to reflect their versatility with the new output and definitely break new ground in terms of sound.
But what remains in any case: The distinctive mix of profound lyrics and catchy melodies that make for emotional and rousing moments live.

TIGERMILCH's unique sound combines soulful-jazzy indie pop with enchanting melodies, hip-hop-inspired groove and a dreamy nonchalance in the ambiguously smart German lyrics. The four Cologne natives - Ben (vocals, synthesizer), Tamim (guitar), Eric (bass) and Philipp (drums) - founded TIGERMILCH in 2018 and received their first public attention in 2020. The debut LP "Gelaber" was released in 2022, including the single "Versprechen", which promptly received over 2 million Spotify plays, all without a major label, all self-made: self-written, self-produced - even the artwork comes from their own team, and it seems as if something like collective pop has been created here. That's not the only neologism you have to come up with to describe TIGERMILCH.

In March '24, the critically acclaimed EP "Gib her was dich kaputt macht" dropped, and TIGERMILCH are currently finalizing their second studio album, which will be released in '25 - the first single was "Kleine Liebesgeschichte" in August '24, followed by "KIPPEN" in November. Their songs tell stories about life, the small and big emotions that connect everyone and hit you right in the heart. Mumbled feelings, where words are almost swallowed and then spat out after all, casually and ironically, as if they were chewing gum with a bit of heartache accidentally stuck to it.
If there's one thing TIGERMILCH can do, it's pile up emotions meters high and tear them down again with the very next sentence, as if that were the only logical step. As if it were the easiest thing in the world to let impressive arrangements meet understatement virtuosity. No doubt about it, you almost believe that this band can do almost anything if they want to: puzzle crazy chords together in such a way that they suddenly sound like pop music. Or simply taking whatever they feel like from any genre. The beats from hip-hop, the melodies from jazz, the riffs from indie, and then they play Memory until everyone has forgotten that they didn't always fit together just as perfectly.

TIGERMILCH have the gift of concentrating disco rhythms into catchy tunes and serving up the result so cleverly that you can dance to it all night long, but also spend an entire afternoon listening to it. Their superpower: they make the simple complicated and the complicated simple, in lyrics full of serenity and the apropos of their generation and in clever cross-references, a bit of "Men I Trust", a bit of "Bilderbuch" - but the design of this band goes further than any reference could.
After an exclusive set at RBF 2024 and a year-end home show at Gebäude 9 in Cologne, TIGERMILCH 2025 will embark on an impressive D-AT-CH tour with songs from the new album in their luggage.
