Germany's top blues band is back shortly after their 30th anniversary with a brand new studio album. Around 4,000 live performances worldwide, multiple winners of the German Blues Awards, German Record Critics' Prize, 16 albums, nominated as 'best band' or 'artist of the year' not only by German, but also British and French media, shows in more than 20 countries - the Hildesheim quintet around the brothers Michael and Andreas Arlt has achieved incredible things. And with 'Breaking Point' they simply continue their proven recipe for success:

With many impressively stylish original compositions and a few selected cover songs, they celebrate and transcend the band blues of the 40s to 50s, as in the hotspots of Chicago and Louisiana , New Orleans or Memphis create a close connection to the soul of the 60s with astonishing ease and once again manage to play music that has been familiar for generations and yet still bears the unmistakable signature of the band from Lower Saxony.
