Treibauf

In the organizer's words:

TREIBAUF

The Munich band has made it their mission to play songs and pieces from all over the world as real dance music.

The five musicians mix old dances and songs with new styles and rhythms with complete abandon.

The band's program includes Bavarian country dances and polkas, Eastern European klezmer and Balkan dances, Irish jigs and reels. They are joined by Italian partisan songs, Irish drinking songs, Russian traditional folk songs and Bavarian revolutionary dances.

Musically, this wild mixture is spiced up with driving ska and polka rhythms.

The unconventional band line-up perfectly sets the scene for the musical temperament: Marianna or Doris on the violin and Stefan or Linda on the accordion take on the melody part. Alex on electric guitar, Matthias on drums and Tobi with his double bass are responsible for the rhythm.

The icing on the cake: band founder Tobi sings confidently in eight original languages.

The result is a rousing traditional mix of roots'n'beats that gets the audience on their feet from the very first notes.

Every concert becomes a dance party on and in front of the stage!
