Giant Stone Eater @ Sommercasino

Last Month Giant Stone Eater played in the beautiful Sommercasino in Basel at the record launch of our pals Scratches. A pleasure! The gig went well : good turnout and a cool atmosphere. We played pretty well considering we had hardly any opportunity to practice recently as I’ve been based in Moscow this past year.

And, we had our first review! Woohoo… Disappointingly it was a really bad one.  Strangely he thought we only played covers when most of the set was our own songs. Anyway, you can read Micahel Bohli’s report for the online hobbyzine Art Noir here: https://artnoir.ch/bericht-scratches-2019-10-11/ Each to his own.

I totally enjoyed the evening and really enjoy playing with these guys. Thanks Scratches for the invite!

And here’s a couple of videos from the night:

Geeetar

well, had a nice night in Kafi für Dich with Urs Matravers and his band aswell as Pink Spider. I played a set with my guitar for the first time ever, and it seemed to be OK. Thanks to Valerie for the wee photo!

Züritipp

We got a wee speel in the fabulous Züritipp today. I must confess, I get a buzz when that happens. It’s for our Café Henrici gig tonight. Hey, hey!

Where else?

Smeily’s Show 23rd May

I’m playing a show with some other singer songwriters. It’s kind of a band together and back each other up kind of thing. I’ll probably put forward three of my songs. Also there are Heinz Bernegger, Timothy Jaromir, Luca Honneger and Jannick Pfenninger. I think Heinz has even found us a drummer. Anyway, it’ll be a cool evening with some good tunes, a cozy ambience and sweet sweet moments. Come along!
