Anders: Kurzurlaub

In the organizer's words:

In German-language pop music, big names such as Clueso, Kraftclub, Cro and Joris are shaping the great songwriter music culture of the New German Poets.

The Freiburg vocal band Anders can be seen in the same musical context. They are Germany's a cappella German poets. Their style: catchy melodies and intelligent lyrics. Anders write smart pop songs in German that take the a cappella performance form seriously and are more than just instrument-imitating cover songs of current chart hits or nostalgic songs about the flora on the balcony. They not only delight their audiences at their own concerts, but have also opened for bands such as Revolverheld and Thees Uhlmann.

With their new program "Kurzurlaub", the Freiburgers present what they do best: Songs that touch. And once again, across the board.

The five singers become musical narrators who write their own stories, sometimes melancholy and profound, sometimes humorous and ironic and sometimes heartbreakingly funny. In a poetic way, they become observers of the normal madness that is called life. It's about love, loss, grief, heartbreak, but also about friendship, hope and the unshakeably optimistic view of the future - in short: about the big and small feelings that make us human.

The five singers approach all of this with an unmistakably self-deprecating and humorous style that reveals that they take their art very seriously, but not themselves quite so seriously.

With their new program, the Freiburg song poets promise us a "short break" for the heart, mind and soul, a journey out of everyday life and into the musical emotional world of the five singers - which quickly becomes our own. Where will the journey take us? Well, to happiness of course! So grab your favorite person and treat yourself to 90 minutes of musical relaxation with Anders - right on your doorstep, in the concert hall of your choice.
