Mr. Hurley & Die Pulveraffen - “AggroShanty Tour” 2017

MR HURLEY & DIE PULVERAFFEN is a German folk band from Osnabrück, which consists of five members. The band sees itself as an early-time inspired pirate band and plays mainly at medieval, harbor and music festivals. In the years 2013 to 2016, the band performed at the Wacken Open Air at the Wackinger Stage every year, and in 2014 at the Festival Mediaval. In November 2014, the EP ‘Plankrock’ was released for which the songs of the older albums were re-recorded as rock versions with electric guitar and drums. The band was supported by three guest musicians. In the spring of 2016 the band went on their first own tour, which was called 'AggroShanty' in 7 cities.

After MR HURLEY & DIE PULVERAFFEN played their first German tour in front of sold out houses in the spring of 2016, the pirate team goes back to “AggroShanty Tour” in March 2017. Everyone, who has an honest folk, entertaining lyrics and a decent breadth of piracy, should not miss out on five selected cities in Germany. "Everything is better with pirates" - When three brothers from Osnabrück took this sentence to heart in 2009 and first stepped out on the street to present their "Grog'n'Roll" to the public, none of them would have the steep rise, the MR. HURLEY & DIE PULVERAFFEN should lie down over the following years. "Grog'n'Roll", "Pirate Folk" or "Aggro-Shanty" are just a few of the names given to the distinctive style from catchy, catchy folk on acoustic instruments, humorous lyrics, throaty trumpet song, and, of course, pirate-maritime civilised behaviour, with which the band inspires an ever-growing audience.

And this audience is not homogeneous. MR. HURLEY & DIE PULVERAFFEN inspired and inspired Metal fans at festivals like the Summer Breeze or the Wacken Open Air, families at different city festivals, historical friends at events such as the world's largest medieval culture festival Mittelalterliches Phantasie Spectaculum and folk lovers at events like the Feuertanz Festivals or the Festival Mediaval. Their first headliner tour has already been completely sold out, and all pre-sales figures show that this trend will continue. The band describes their self-ironic and amusing pirate stories in written texts in German. The songs are titled ‘Shrunken Head in the Rumtopf’, ‘Kiss me, I've got scurvy’ or ‘Blue like the sea’. The latter song has already become a cult hit for festival visitors. The associated video on YouTube meanwhile over one million clicks. Whether everything is really better with pirates, cannot be said. But with these three pirates definitely.
