Learning to fly - The Storytellers

Learning to Fly - The Storytellers at Joly's Live Music Bar

Artists like Bob Dylan, Tom Waits, Bruce Springsteen, Paul Simon, and Tom Petty are rock poets. With their songs, they have made music history, and their works have provided generations of singer-songwriters with a blueprint for their own successes.

With their program STORYTELLERS, Martin Hauke and Juan Schmid pay a heartfelt tribute to these extraordinary songwriters. Sometimes using their own arrangements, yet always staying true to the originals, the two musicians play and recount the creative process of these and other world-renowned artists, their lives, and the stories behind the songs.

When you listen to them, you can feel their love for this music. Sometimes gentle and understated, sometimes with great power, they skillfully employ their guitars and voices. Yet they always play respectfully, letting the song take center stage. Concertgoers can thus expect an unplugged program performed with charm, joy, and great passion.

Martin Hauke was a founding member and longtime guitarist of Europe’s best Rolling Stones tribute band, VOODOO LOUNGE, and Juan Schmid is known as the singer of the Hanover-based soul group SOULVIERTEL.
