Kuhn Fu & Kris Kuldkepp @Astra Stube
Kuhn Fu @Astra Stube Einlass: 20:00 Uhr Start: 20:30 Uhr Support: Kris Kuldkepp Tickets: www.tixforgigs.de www.astra-stube.com Kuhn Fu Nicht nur der Bandname ist martialisch. Bei ihrer "Jazz Punk Psychedelia" dreht die Band KUHN FU des Gitarristen und Conferenciers Christian Achim Kühn alles durch den improvisatorischen Wolf. Zappa trifft Kabarett, Surf-Sounds und Metal-Riffs reiten den Chattanooga Choo-Choo, während Shakespeare, Brecht und Monty Python Pate stehen. Mit diesem Doppelalbum von Kuhn Fu wird jedenfalls Frank Zappas Frage, ob Humor denn auch zur Musik gehöre, mit einem eindeutigen Ja beantwortet. Dieses Doppelalbum hat ein Publikum jenseits der Jazzspezialisten verdient und wenn Kuhn Fu irgendwo in ihrer Nähe live auftritt: hingehen! (BR Kulturnacht) This dramatic, nonsensical story is a sharp parody of the music industry in the era of social media, which eventually concludes that «jazz is expensive».
