SUMMARY:Francis  Rossi – Songbook Tour 2026
DESCRIPTION:An Evening With Francis Rossi – Songbook Tour 2026\nGenre: Rock\, Boogie Rock\, Rock and Roll \nFrancis Rossi the frontman of legendary Status Quo brings his solo tour to theatre am Tanzbrunnen in Cologne. Rossi released three solo albums\, over 100 singles and  33 studio albums with Status Quo with a career spanning 63 years. Status Quo\, one of UK’s longest running bands had 60 chart hits over the years in the UK\, more than any other band. They performed 3700 documented and roughly 6000 undocumented gigs over the years. Between 1968 and 2019 the band was on multinational tour every year\, their highest gigs per year was 144 in 1971. While they had massive success in UK and Europe they had only minor chart presence and never broke through as a mainstream band or toured extensively in North America. \n‘The Accidental’ by Francis Rossi\, will be released through earMUSIC on 30th January 2026 on CD\, LP and Digital formats\, comes as something of a surprise… It was a surprise certainly to Francis\, who had no plans to record an album. While Rossi’s previous solo albums explored his love for acoustic ballads\, vocal harmonies\, and the blend of British rock with country influences\, this album\, Francis Rossi’s first in seven years\, marks a true return to the energetic\, guitar-driven sound that made him a legend with Status Quo. ‘The Accidental’ sees Francis Rossi playing to his strengths\, but taking risks\, cutting loose\, and exploring new territory – this album is all about old bones and fresh blood. \nFrancis Rossi will play at the Theater am Tanzbrunnen on May 15\, 2026 as part of his ten date Germany tour in 2026. \nBUY TICKETS\nCheck out Francis Rossi’s Youtube channel: \n\n  \n\n  \n

SUMMARY:John5 - Tour 2026
DESCRIPTION:John5 – Tour2026 \nSupport: South Of Salem \nJOHN 5: The ultimate guitar virtuoso live in Germany! Three shows at the end of May in Cologne\, Hamburg\, and Munich \nFor over 30 years\, JOHN 5 has been one of the most sought-after guitarists in the world. In addition to his work as a songwriter and on-demand guitarist\, JOHN 5 has shared the stage with Rob Zombie\, Marilyn Manson\, and Rob Halford. In October 2022\, it was announced that JOHN 5 would be joining Mötley Crüe as their new guitarist following Mick Mars’s announcement of his retirement – ​​fulfilling perhaps this gifted guitarist’s greatest childhood dream. He has also collaborated with an impressive array of artists across all genres of music\, including KD Lang\, Rod Stewart\, David Lee Roth\, Alice Cooper\, Lynyrd Skynyrd\, Meat Loaf\, Dolly Parton\, and Ricky Martin. John 5 remains an integral part of Mötley Crüe\, most recently during a residency in Las Vegas in 2025. However\, to describe him as merely a “shredder” would not do justice to his talent. Award-winning guitarist and songwriter Slash is quoted as saying\, “John 5 is without a doubt one of the most incredible guitarists ever.” \nBorn John William Lowery in 1970 in Grosse Pointe\, Michigan\, John’s journey began at the age of seven\, inspired by the music of Hee Haw and Jimi Hendrix. Supported by his parents\, John began making waves in the local Detroit music scene as a teenager. He formed his first band\, Dirty Trixx\, which won a Battle of the Bands competition. This early success fueled his ambition\, and at 18\, John took the bold step of moving to Los Angeles. \nFate took another turn in 1998 when Marilyn Manson was looking for a new guitarist. Renamed John 5 by Manson\, he became an integral part of the band\, bringing his signature shredding style to songs such as the Grammy-nominated “Astonishing Panorama of the Endtimes\,” the controversial 2000 album “Holy Wood: In The Shadow Of The Valley Of Death\,” and the burlesque- and Weimar Republic-inspired “The Golden Age of Grotesque.” \nFollowing a chance encounter with the legendary Les Paul\, John began working on his own music\, releasing “Vertigo” in 2004. This album marked the beginning of a prolific solo career\, during which he has released ten studio albums\, two live albums\, and one remix album. He has collaborated with artists such as Steve Vai and Albert Lee and explored a wide range of musical styles\, from blues-infused rock to experimental electronica. Most recently\, he gave his fans a glimpse into his life with the brand-new song “A Hollywood Story.” The track and accompanying video tell the story of John 5’s incredible journey\, from being a 7-year-old boy to working with many big\, diverse stars.

SUMMARY:Goose - An Evening With Goose
DESCRIPTION:Goose is an American rock band known for their genre-bending sound\, improvisational live performances\, and devoted fanbase. The band consists of Rick Mitarotonda (vocals\, guitar)\, Peter Anspach (vocals\, keyboards\, guitar)\, Trevor Weekz (bass)\, and Cotter Ellis (vocals\, drums). Their music—a skillful blend of indie rock hooks\, sprawling improvisations\, and driving rhythms—has propelled them from playing basement gigs in Connecticut to headlining shows on some of the nation’s most prestigious stages. Known for their strong DIY ethic\, Goose has grown organically through relentless touring and utilizing platforms like YouTube\, Bandcamp\, and nugs.net to share live performances and connect with fans. \nGoose will release their fifth studio album\, “Chain Yer Dragon\,” on August 14. It arrives just four months after “Everything Must Go\,” their first release since 2022’s critically acclaimed album “Dripfield\,” which reached number 2 on Billboard’s Top New Artist Albums chart and was praised by Rolling Stone as “sweet ear-pleasing music for headphones and the basis for a perfect live climax.” \nUnlike its predecessor\, “Everything Must Go” draws on the feeling of Goose’s live performances and features songs written during the last few years of their growth\, including reimagined live classics and tracks that capture their evolving\, dynamic sound. The album’s first single\, “Give It Time\,” peaked at number 6 on the AAA radio charts. Goose is the only band to have two songs (“Give It Time” and “Your Direction”) simultaneously charting on those charts. \nNow\, “Chain Yer Dragon” welcomes listeners into a rich\, polished world of music and familiar characters\, inviting them to follow the lights and sounds through seedy bars and long nights on the road\, fading into the clarity of a fresh dawn. Showcasing Goose’s versatility\, the album delivers 70s-style rock songs that feel familiar and are brought to life through improvisation. Playing with form\, the album is carried by a natural production style that once again captures the raw\, uninhibited feel of the band’s electrifying live shows. \n“Everything Must Go” garnered significant media attention upon its spring release\, including extensive features in The New York Times\, Vulture\, and other publications\, as well as a memorable appearance and interview with Anthony Mason on the CBS Saturday Morning Show. Hailed by SPIN as “a wide-ranging demonstration of the creative talent that has attracted such high-profile collaborators and a growing fanbase… 90 minutes of music that blends organic grooves with an increasing capacity for catchy melodic hooks\,” “Everything Must Go” has been praised by a host of publications\, including Uproxx\, which hailed it as “the band’s most weighty and satisfying studio album to date\,” Guitar Player\, which described it as “melodic yet adventurous\, full of righteous grooves\, elaborate electric guitar solos\, and other musical flourishes\,” and PopMatters\, which simply called it “superb… one of the best studio albums by a jam band to date.” The album is both a statement of intent from Goose and a kind of arrival—a journey for fans and newcomers alike through the group’s past\, present\, and infinite future. \nSince their beginnings\, when they recorded “Moon Cabin” in a barn in northern New Hampshire in 2016\, Goose has continued to refine their unique approach to songwriting and improvisation\, striking a rare balance between meticulously crafted songs\, precise musicianship\, and emotional honesty. Goose has sold out numerous venues across the United States\, including Madison Square Garden\, Radio City Music Hall\, Red Rocks Amphitheater\, and Forest Hills Stadium\, and has appeared on shows such as “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon\,” “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” and “CBS Saturday Morning.” The band has also performed at numerous legendary music festivals\, including the Bonnaroo Music & Arts Festival\, ACL\, and many others. Through their commitment to progress\, Goose continually reminds us that music isn’t simply played—it’s felt\, lived\, and shared.

SUMMARY:Blue October
DESCRIPTION:Blue October are coming to Germany in May 2026!  \nLone Star State rockers Blue October deliver an emotionally charged amalgam of heart-heavy post-grunge and slick modern rock. They found favor in 2006 with their platinum-selling fourth long-player Foiled\, which featured the chart-topping singles “Hate Me” and “Into the Ocean\,” and built on that success with a series of albums that saw them go from a radio-ready\, post-grunge act. (2011’s Any Man in America) to stadium-sized synth rockers with an unabashed flair for the dramatic (2016’s Home). In 2022\, they issued Spinning the Truth Around\, the first installment of a double-LP that concluded in 2023 with Volume 2. \nThe band was formed in 1995 in Houston by vocalist/guitarist Justin Furstenfeld\, who had begun penning angst-ridden rock songs with the help of his brother\, drummer Jeremy Furstenfeld\, and violinist Ryan Delahoussaye. The band has had twenty-one top 40 singles on the alternative rock chart over the span of thirteen studio albums. \n\n
