I just re-realised that the subtitle of this blog is actually concepts and concerts. And, hey, I’ve been to a really nice concert lately.
Martin Klein and Band in the BackstageBar in Wr. Neustadt.
Martin Klein – piano, vocals
Manuel Brunner – bass
Alex Kerbl – drums
Reminds me of The Weakerthans, Damien Rice
We bougt their new CD „Songs for my piano“, from which my currently favorite Songs are: On My Way To You, Rush (the ones that kicked in immediately) and Bis ans Ende der Welt (not on the CD).
And some trivia: According to this interview (3:50) by Birgit Denk for okto, Martin got to know Manuel, one of the band members at a concert in the Blunzenstricker, a viennese pub is directly below my room in Ottakring ;-) And I think I heard him already about two years ago in Cafe Concerto, but not sure.
