With several albums to his name \u2013 most recently the highly acclaimed \u201cThe King is Dead\u201d \u2013 Klopke regularly tours throughout Germany with his band and is equally at home in intimate clubs and on large festival stages. Last year, the band played over 50 concerts, taking them from Hamburg to Heidelberg and from Krefeld to Berlin. Their musical spectrum ranges from rock and pop to reggae, blues and world music; the songs deal with life\u2019s moments, both big and small. Klopke\u2019s credo is: \u201cA song should always tell its own story; that\u2019s the most important thing. I\u2019m actually a travelling singer who takes to the stage, with his little bits of wisdom and experiences, and sings his songs. About sailing round the world, beautiful Bedouin daughters, about love, and about not being loved in return.\u201d    <\/p>\n<p class=\"cast-paragraph\">Udo Klopke, vocals and guitar<br \/>\nRalf Metz, bass<br \/>\nStephan Sagurna, drums<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":12766,"template":"","genre":[],"state":[153],"class_list":["post-12767","veranstaltung","type-veranstaltung","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","state-current"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v22.5 -
