Fortuna Ehrenfeld

In the organizer's words:

Solo on the piano

The devil invented the gas pedal
And now we'll do our laps
And fill up with a little more gas

"At the piano, a grand master of tart storytelling. Beguiling and sovereign." Rolling Stone

Sold-out tours and an acclaimed press.
In just a few years, Martin Bechler, head and singer of the Cologne-based indie band Fortuna Ehrenfeld, has taken his project from a moderately attended pub concert to a sold-out Cologne Philharmonie.

With his idiosyncratic poetry and unpredictable sound cosmos, he has created a completely independent genre.

In rare solo concerts, Bechler takes us back to his study at his piano, where he creates the songs for Fortuna before putting them through the wolf with his playful band. In Solo am Klavier, quiet, deep spaces open up - lyrics and his unmistakable voice come to the fore.

In 2024, he is awarded the German Cabaret Prize for his "intoxicating melodies and musical resistance".

"Once the left ventricle poured out over the keyboard and the right one thrown furiously behind it" Martin Bechler

"Fortuna Ehrenfeld hit right in the heart" Stern

"Beguiling and sovereign." Rolling Stone

"One of the greatest songwriters of modern times" Schall Magazin

"So there it is, the new benchmark of German pop music" MZ
