Boy

It's been four years that fans of the German-Swiss duo BOY had to be patient: Then, in August last year, Valeska Steiner and Sonja Glass released their second album called `We Were Here´ and were as successful with it as with their debut ‘Mutual Friends’ in 2011. An airy weave of stories and experiences, profound arrangements, and touching lyrics made the new record go straight to the top three of the German charts. BOY has already played numerous concerts in major cities as well as at the remotest corners of the world. And they unfold the potential of their songs best, when they perform them live. On the upcoming “We Were Here Tour”, BOY will present their refined tunes with their band in a pure and authentic manner. On March 12, they're going to send out colorful sparks at the Kulturfabrik in Krefeld.

Last May, the Finnish rock band SUNRISE AVENUE delighted 25,000 spectators in Hannover, Germany, with an exclusive and magnificent orchestra show. The concert was a sellout and it's not surprising that their fans requested more orchestra shows. So, in March this year, Samu Haber (vocals, guitar) and his bandmates Raul Ruutu (bass, backing vocals), Sami Osala (drums), Riku Rajamaa (guitar, backing vocals), and Osmo Ikonen (keys, backing vocals) are coming back again together with the Wonderland Orchestra to share with you further brilliant live shows extraordinaire. On March 11, SUNRISE AVENUE will kick off their orchestra tour across Germany in Cologne's Lanxess Arena.
