Grobschnitt

Description

Grobschnitt is coming to Offenburg's Reithalle for their 55th band anniversary. When the two founding members of Grobschnitt, "Lupo" (lead guitar) and "Willi Wildschwein" (singer and guitarist), along with Willi's son "Nuki" (guitar, vocals, percussion), announced via video message on April 1, 2019, that they would finally return to the German stages, a long-held dream of their still very large fan base of the legendary band from Hagen came true. The desire to do something that had never been done before in the band's long history was the motivation for the "Grobschnitt Acoustic Party" project. The classic Grobschnitt songs are interpreted live in completely new, acoustic arrangements without any fuss. The three musicians prepared the acoustic project meticulously over two years, without even Grobschnitt insiders knowing about it. The "Grobschnitt Acoustic Party" is a 3-hour emotional journey including a break through the band's 55-year music history, featuring many well-known classics from albums from 1972 to 1989, presented and celebrated in an intimate, family-like atmosphere. It also includes compositions that the band has never played live or only rarely. The program naturally includes the two long tracks "Solar Music" and "Rockpommel's Land" in 30-minute acoustic versions, which are known to be essential at any Grobschnitt performance. To the delight of Grobschnitt enthusiasts, a purely acoustic studio album featuring band classics was released in May 2022, debuting at number 25 on the German Album Charts. The album, simply titled "GROBSCHNITT ACOUSTIC ALBUM," contains 14 tracks and is a homage to the band's 50th anniversary. It is also a tribute to the loyal fan base, now spanning three generations, whose motto "No day without Grobschnitt" has always been a cult.
