Handmade music as a trademark
The band, which has been playing in an unchanged lineup since its beginnings in 2006 at the Leibniz-Gymnasium in Berlin-Lankwitz, relied on their characteristic analog sound in Jena as well. Instead of backing tracks or laptops, the musicians set up a variety of real instruments on stage – from the Stratocaster and Rhodes piano to the glockenspiel and keytar. Lead singer Matthias Rohde emphasized the band’s handmade approach to the audience, which created a distinctive atmosphere live.
For the musicians, this was their fourth appearance in Jena, further strengthening the close bond between the group and the local fan base over the years. In addition to established tracks, the band also presented songs from their fourth album.
