Sound Cocktail mit der MC EBEL One Man Bluesband

In the organizer's words:

La Copa Syke presents in 2025, together with Emotional.Zone, Rausgegangen.de, DownTownIslandRadio and Cafe-Schwarz.TV the Cocktail Sounds every 2nd Friday of the month. From 20:00 to 22:00, whereby..., the end of the concert is largely determined by the audience (i.e. you)!

MC EBEL One Man Bluesband

Good blues from Germany, yes that works too! Whereby the landscape certainly contributes to this, the wide prairie of the Lüneburg Heath is not very suitable for hits or metal, if you look out of the window... but the landscape then gives a lot of blues! Born in Hamburg in 1962, the big city escape to beautiful Handeloh in the middle of the Lüneburg Heath took place in 2005.

The McEbel One Man Bluesband is a special kind of one-man band. McEbel plays his drums sitting down, not on his back. He also sings and plays guitar and harmonica. His program covers the whole range of the blues genre, from the country blues of Robert Johnson to Texas blues ala Stevie Ray Vaughan to the Chicago blues of Muddy Waters, spiced up with little excursions into the soul of Ray Charles. The songs don't sound like copies of the originals, that would be presumptuous, but like McEbel - sometimes raw, always with emotion. His sound sounds like a full band, and McEbel also knows how to entertain the audience with little stories.

His first CD was released in 2019, which Mc Ebel then called "May I introduce myself" and which contains 6 interpretations of titles by other authors as well as 3 original compositions.
"May I intrudice myself" (his dog selflessly introduces himself musically), "Don't waste my Time" is an instrumental guitar boogie and "Stolen car Blues" tells the story of a stolen musician's car... which had a happy ending! Car back, everything inside gone, until the shoes (which he still cherishes and wears today!).

McEbel One Man Bluesband CD number 2 - Blues, Sweat & Beers
Recorded directly, without any overdubs, in the barn of an old farmhouse. Vocals, blues harp, guitar, foot drums - all at the same time - as you would expect from McEbel. In his choice of songs, he has put together a mix of interpretations of more or less well-known titles and his own pieces. From personal slow blues to party numbers, perhaps not everything is included, but a lot. Emotions included! In the song INFECTED, for example, McEbel talks about his passion for the blues, which was awakened at the beginning of the eighties by Stevie Ray Vaughan in particular and then consolidated a few years later by B.B. King. It continues unabated to this day. Let's have a blues party!

Free admission, this is a hat concert. Just come along and enjoy good music and good conversation with acquaintances, friends and strangers alike!
For each concert, the La Copa team creates a special "cocktail of the evening", which might even make it onto the menu with your help!
Enjoy a few hours of music in a relaxed atmosphere with musicians and bands from a wide variety of genres. And if you like it - musicians love spotlights - then you are welcome to leave something in the hat for the musicians and bands...
