Transcription
History
The band was founded when the members were in seventh grade at the Beethoven-Gymnasium in Berlin, after sports lessons were cancelled due to the teacher having called in sick. They have described their earlier musical style as "from hardcore punk to 8-bit Gameboy Casio music". After high school, all band members started studying subjects like architecture, film music, mathematics, electrical engineering and art. However, they took a break from university in order to focus on their first album and the associated tour.
In 2014, Von Wegen Lisbeth went on tour as the supporting act to AnnenMayKantereit, and in November they released their EP “Und plötzlich der Lachs”. This was followed by 18 more concerts with AnnenMayKantereit at the beginning of 2015, and their first tour as headliner called "Störung im Betriebsablauf" at the end of the year.
After they went on tour with Element of Crime and again AnnenMayKantereit in early 2016.,[1] they released their debut album Grande on July 15, 2016, which was followed by a tour in September and October of the same year. They also played at several music festivals in 2016, such as the Appletree Garden Festival, the Kosmonaut Festival, Rocken am Brocken and the Fusion Festival. In 2018, they performed at the Campus Festival in Bielefeld[2] as well as at the Deichbrand in Nordholz.
In 2019, the band released their second album [email protected].[3] In the summer of 2019, they performed at numerous festivals like the Open Air Werden, the Taubertal-Festival and others.[4] That same year, they also toured Germany, Austria and Switzerland with their “Britz-California”-tour, their fourth tour as headliners[5]
Style
Their song lyrics are mainly written by the band’s singer Matthias Rohde, who integrates everyday situations and conversations into his songs.
“These are all everyday experiences that you unconsciously pick up. The basic ideas are usually autobiographical, but when developing the lyrics, I add a lot of stuff.”[6]
Characteristic for their musical style are instruments such as an electronic Casio-Keyboard or a steel drum, which the band has partly borrowed or bought from an opera house.
