Seemingly unambiguous. And then everything becomes confused and shifted again. In eternal circles of chairs, hot water shot out of cannons onto the street, suddenly war under the window. Or is it just your spirits fighting inside you? The mythical creatures, the nocturnal ghosts and, of course, the chameleon that sees everything and waits. For you.
And you? Unfortunately, you've forgotten everything, even though you wanted to write it down. You remember songs.
What remains, what comes? you ask. Can you hear the vows of love from the marzipan machine? If you don't shop, you'll end up in the hole, they say. But someone always has superpowers and intervenes. Burns the reminder notices. Calls the police if necessary.
I'm the chameleon. Unbelievable.
The current program of the Berlin singer-songwriter duo Rainer Schildberger and Ingo Bieß is about camouflage and transformation, phoenix feelings and the invisible, 1000-year-old child. The lyrics are quirky and ambiguous, the songs poetic and political. Personal. Unbelievable.
Rainer Schildberger and Ingo Bieß present exclusively their own compositions and previously unpublished stories. Accompanied by music from keyboardist Andreas Boehlke. All pieces in unplugged versions. Guitar, vocals, percussion. Under the band name "ZANK", the three produce rock music with German lyrics.
Rainer Schildberger is a radio journalist, author and musician.
He writes features, radio plays and books. Songs.
Ingo Bieß is a multi-instrumentalist and songwriter. He is a live musician in various bands and genres.
