Marc Sultan er bedre kendt som BBQ-delen af King Khan & BBQ, som har spillet 1000Fryd tilbage i tidernes morgen. Nu er BBQ tilbage som sig selv, men det bliver det ikke mindre fantastisk af.
Marc Sultan er en institution i garagescenen i Montral og indtager nu 1000Fryd med sin en-mands garage fuld-frontalsangreb.
Mark Sultan, også kendt som BBQ, har foræret os en perlerække af bands som The King Khan & BBQ Show, The Almighty Defenders, Mind Controls, The Spaceshits og Les Sexareenos. Solo spiller han som Mark Sultan/BBQ - en absolut mester indenfor one-man-band formularen med guitar, sang og samtidig store- og lilletromme på fødderne. Den perfekte blandning af 50'er rock'n'roll, R'n'B, soul, punk og garagerock. Har man een gang hørt Mark Sultans fantastisk store stemme, bliver man øjeblikkeligt hooked, med mindre man er død og begravet to meter under jorden
Hank Robot er ligeledes et enmands garageangreb, men er samtidig et skalkeskjul for Kim Kix fra Power Solo.
Hank Robot præsenterer sig selv på denne måde... "Hank Robot is words and music. A guitar. A harmonica. A kick and a tambourine -told, recorded, produced and performed by one man. Kim Kix. A tall handsome, blue-eyed sumbitch - a ladies friend, a redneck's worst enemy. A man who's seen some of the worst things happen in his own back alley, and a man who's seen some of the most beautiful things happen in his own backyard. A man who's got something to say, only if he's got something to say. A man. One man. One long shadow. A father. A lover. A voice.
Sådan!
Og til at starte ballet har vi dansk/brasilianske, men Aalborg-baseret Courettes. En garage duo, som på bedste vis mikser 60'er beat og garagepop i en højere enhed!
Eller med deres egne ord.. "The Brazilian wildness blends with the scandinavian way of rock 'n' roll in this brand new garage group based in Aalborg. 60's beats, riot girl's screams, punk and a bit of pop makes The Courettes a unique musical blast. Go check them out before they fly throughtout the world - and the galaxy!
*****************
And in english:
MARK SULTAN is back. A long-time fixture in the garage-rock scene since fronting infamous Montreal punk band, The Spaceshits. Further projects like Les Sexareenos, BBQ, Mind Controls, The King Khan & BBQ Show and The Almighty Defenders helped spearhead the modern garage-rock and doo-wop movement. These days he is best known as the ‘BBQ’ half of The King Khan & BBQ Show or as a member of The Almighty Defenders. He often shirks recognition and credit but make no mistake, he is THE VOICE. A hitmaker.
Drawing from his usual influences, Mark has managed to forge an inventive and captivating original record. Doo-wop, R&B, punk, soul, garage-rock, psyche, country and even noise are blended into a seamless new sound that finds a place on the base of your spine and crawls its way up, slowly.
