  • Spillestedet Stengade 18 Stengade København, 2200 Denmark (map)

The God of Hellfire - Den legendariske og oprindelige shock rocker kommer forbi Stengade!

"Without Arthur Brown there would be no Alice Cooper" - Alice Cooper

"A guy called Arthur Brown... was a big influence of mine..." - Bruce Dickinson

Brown har haft en betydelig indflydelse på blandt andre Alice Cooper, David Bowie, Peter Gabriel, Marilyn Manson, George Clinton, Kiss, King Diamond og Bruce Dickinson fra Iron Maiden, og hans sange er blevet coveret eller samplet af en række kunstnere herunder Ozzy Osbourne, Vidunderbarnet, Marilyn Manson, Who og Death Grips.

Browns stemme og især hans høje banshee-skrig er en forløber for banshee-skrigen hos mange senere heavy metal-sangere, og hans teatralske koncepter og scenetilstedeværelse såsom ansigtsmakeup, især hans sorte og hvide ansigtsmaling (corpse paint), voodoo dans og flammehjelm var banebrydende for meget af det, der skulle blive shock rock og progressiv rock.

+ Support: Fancy Lee

Fancy Lee is the hottest new psychedelic blues band, that will make you leave that no-good man behind and take a jive on the darker side of life!

With a rebellious woodstock energy, Fancy Lee invites listeners into psychedelic tales of voodoo witches, swamp folk and murderous women.

Our music isn’t just for groovin’, it’s for making a wild one out of you, a rebel and a thinker.

“For a band with obvious inspiration in psychedelic rock, it was remarkable that Fancy Lee's songs were so concise and disciplined in execution. There were no endless solos or idling in deep grooves; the tracks were delivered with punch and precision without in any way compromising the semi-mystical voodoo vibe.

Fancy Lee proved to be a strong live band and an exciting and unique new name on the Danish scene for blues and related genres. We look forward to seeing more from this orchestra.” - Jakob Wandam, Blues News.
