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

Sold-out tours and a cheering 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 Philharmonic Hall.
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

"At the piano, a grand master of harsh narration. Beguiling and sovereign."
Rolling Stone
