You know Daniel "Dän" Dickopf, songwriter and lyricist of the Wise Guys, who disbanded in July 2017, you know Nils Olfert, who was active with the Wise Guys for almost nine years, and Björn Sterzenbach, who was the last bass player of Germany's most successful a cappella formation. But the other two "Alte Bekannte" are no blank slates either: Clemens Schmuck attracted attention as a member of the Dutch band "Intrmzzo", among others, and Ingo Wolfgarten has recently drawn attention to himself alongside Gregor Meyle, but also in various other musical projects.
These five musicians have joined forces to form a new a cappella ensemble: "Alte Bekannte". The music of Alte Bekannte is in the tradition of the Wise Guys - pop music without instruments with really good German lyrics. Humorous, biting, emotional. Especially the two "new guys" Clemens and Ingo provide with their ideas, compositions and arrangements but also a strong breath of fresh air.
