PICK OF THE DAY

You cannot miss this event.

In the organizer's words:

The MARKTHALLE ACHT presents the MARKTTÖNE every Thursday (except public holidays).
from 7 to 9 pm (new from June 2023), whereby..., the end of the concert is largely determined by the audience (i.e. you)!

JOHNETHEN FUCHS

The songwriter founded and played in the Dresden Britrock band "The Smokkings" back in 2007, where he also gained his first compositional and lyrical experience. In 2013 he finally decided to start his solo project and form a separate backing band: "Johnethen Fuchs & the Woods".

Since 2014, he has played well over 400 concerts throughout Germany and neighboring
countries. Partly as part of extensive solo tours, but also with the whole band, e.g. at various festivals and as a support act for international artists such as Jordan Prince (USA), The Dead Heavys (Ireland), The Bland (Sweden) and Tim McMillan (Australia).

Located between folk, pop and indie, the songs are sometimes euphoric, sometimes melancholic. The debut album "Algeroy", released in 2015, is a harmonious, sometimes thoughtful sound experience that you can indulge in and let yourself drift wonderfully.

The voice stands out from the genre-typical framework: voluminous blues vocals, tender-soft falsetto or snotty-raw rock voice - the surprisingly versatile vocals permeate the often autobiographical songs with devotion.

The second album "Less Is Not Enough", which was released in 2018, is more differentiated and arranged on a larger scale. The title says it all and the 13 songs are about enduring longing, not giving up and striving for more in order to feel alive in every fiber of your body and mind.

After the production of the third album came to a standstill in 2020 due to the effects of the coronavirus pandemic, we can now look forward to releases in 2022. In terms of both content and composition, the British rocker is venturing into deeper territory. In addition to a broader field of musical expression, it is above all vulnerability and deliberate imperfectionism that make the artist and his work seem approachable, empathetic and alive.

The album concept deals with the feeling of alienation in connection with the urge to break out of familiar living environments. Various key moments, such as isolation, inner turmoil, reflection and reorientation, are exemplified in the songs. On the one hand to raise awareness of these problems, and on the other to articulate the associated thoughts and emotions. Those affected often feel alone in this, but there are many of them.
The music is intended to offer points of contact and connection here.

All concerts are hat concerts, which means that YOU as a guest decide what amount you think is appropriate and put in the hat. There is no rule for this, you alone decide. A little tip: musicians create their works, rehearse and come to us at the venue! Musicians love "spotlights" and any amount is welcome - just like you! We accept cash or EC cash! The amount goes 100% to the musicians on the same evening.

Simply natural.
Simply down-to-earth.
Simply well done.
And our credo is also very simple: Less, but better. We want to consciously and passionately limit ourselves to one thing - real taste.
