When the square in front of the Jazzkeller Krefeld once again transforms into a vibrant hub for live music on August 8, 2026, one thing is clear: GO MUSIC is back!
What has long since established itself as a fixture on the summer cultural calendar takes on a very special appeal this year. Because when Martin Engelien—bassist, visionary, and tireless advocate for live music—invites you to GO MUSIC, it’s not just about a concert—it’s about an experience.
For over 30 years, Engelien has pursued a clear mission: music must be experienced live—authentic, unfiltered, and full of risk. With GO MUSIC, he has created a platform where top international musicians come together without any pretense and elevate the moment to an art form. Over 300 musicians from all over the world have already brought this idea to life—and every evening is unique.
Engelien has put together a band that brings exactly this spirit to the stage:
First and foremost is Chuck Plaisance, a singer and guitarist from New Orleans whose warm, expressive voice instantly conjures up vivid images. His musical background—including collaborations with legends like Michael Jackson—is reflected in every note. When he sings, that unmistakable ’70s vibe suddenly fills the air: soul, groove, and a deep, honest emotionality.
At his side is Martin Ettrich, guitarist, singer, and a defining figure in the German rock scene. As a member of the legendary band Birth Control, he brings decades of stage experience and a distinctive style to the table. His guitar playing is powerful, precise, and at the same time full of feeling—exactly what great live moments need.
Dirk Brand, one of Germany’s most versatile and internationally sought-after drummers, provides the pulsating heartbeat. Whether with Axxis at the world’s biggest metal festivals or alongside artists like Seal, Gloria Gaynor, or members of Asia—Dirk Brand knows how to get any stage moving. His playing is energetic, dynamic, and always spot-on.
Together with Martin Engelien, they create a musical force field that goes far beyond a traditional concert. Here, they don’t merely reproduce—they create. Spontaneously, intensely, and with passion.
The audience can look forward to a journey that takes them right to the heart of live music. To songs that are reimagined. To improvisations that exist only in that one moment. And to an atmosphere that brings people together—musicians and listeners alike. It is the combination of quality, the joy of playing, and a genuine connection with the audience that makes this concert series so special.
