Manege frei für Marina & the Kats! With their new album "Swingsalabim" they captivate us once again and enter completely new territory. Blown away by the charm of nostalgia, the new songs dance on the pulse of time. Tamer Marina, with her unmistakably fresh and yet touching voice, always has her kats firmly under control and always conjures up new ideas from her top hat. What has already been announced with the two excellent albums "Small" and "Wild", continues smoothly on "Swingsalabim". The trio effortlessly combines light-footed, catchy rhythms with crisp songwriting and a striking dose of fun.
Emancipated from the mere retro sound, a whole new style emerges from the love of the lifestyle of the burgeoning modern age, which is more than a reference to days gone by. Independent, unmistakable. Glittering, enchanting, right to the heart.
The "smallest big band in the world" creates a vintage and retro sound of days long past, without restricting themselves too much to the aesthetics of that era. Musically as well as thematically, they skilfully cast an eye on current events and mix the most diverse epochs. In addition to the classic, earworm-rich swing elements in songs like "Get On With It" or "1000 Miles Ahead", the band ventures into new realms without losing their timeless, pumping vintage sound. Line-up: Marina Zettl (voc, brushes), Thomas Mauerhofer (g, voc), Peter Schönbauer (ac-b, voc)
