JazzRadio staff member
Adrian Schödl had the pleasure of seeing them perform live on Tuesday night. Here's his report:
Presenting their newest album,
De-Phazz gave a concert in the Berlin Postbahnhof yesterday. The Band around
Pit Baumgartner, the bands mastermind, performed almost 2 hours mostly songs from the Album
“La La 2.0”. But also classic songs like
“The Mambo Craze” or new songs, which are not on the album, motivated the crowd to dance.
Rotating
Pat Appleton and
Karl Frierson performed their songs and surprised the audience with changing costumes. Another nice thing for the eyes was the huge video screen in the back of the band, which showed a unique clip to each song.
The icing on the cake was the live instrumentation besides the samples and the singing. The drummer had a very powerful drive and made every song danceable and some guests could not resist the rhythm and started dancing.
The next tour dates in Germany are Leipzig tonight, Krefeld on the 13th and Cologne on the 14th before they move on to Russia and Ukraine at the end of May.
