Hamburg. NDW superstar, protagonist of Neue Deutsche Härte, Godfather of Dark Rock: experience Joachim Witt up close this year! The exceptional artist will play four exclusive club concerts in selected locations in September. His unique selling point: Only Joachim Witt can do Joachim Witt!
He is, as fans emphasize, "unique, very special". Many times Joachim Witt already reinvented himself and always remained on the nerve of the time of authoritative German music history. All this speaks for the man who in 1981 needed only one song to take a firm place in the annals of German pop music: "Goldener Reiter" climbed to the top of the charts in the updraft of the New German Wave (NDW) and has lost none of its impact to this day.
Witt's career now spans 45 years: the beginnings as Julian, the awards for his band Duesenberg, the solo years with now 16 studio albums, 49 singles and about 2 million records sold, ups and downs, tours around the globe, time off, comebacks and stylistic reversals included. Two more signature songs - namely "Tri Tra Trullala (Herbergsvater)" and "Die Flut", the latter a duet with Peter Heppner (Wolfsheim) and with 900,000 units the bestseller of his extensive repertoire - shape the public image of Witt.
