In the organizer's words:

Miles Kane back in Germany with new album in February

Presented by VISIONS

In the studio in Nashville, the smell of old wood and tube amplifiers hangs in the air. Between guitars, cables and half-empty coffee cups, Miles Kane sits with a notebook in his hand - a familiar picture, but this time everything is different. For his sixth solo album "Sunlight In The Shadows", the Brit, known as one half of the Last Shadow Puppets and former frontman of the Rascals, has embarked on a new journey: into the heart of the American South, into the creative care of Dan Auerbach, the mastermind behind the Black Keys. The result sounds as if Kane had captured the sun over Route 66 and poured it into twelve songs. "All roads, over 20 years, have led here," says Kane about the album, which was released by Easy Eye Sound on October 17. And indeed, "Sunlight In The Shadows" feels like the essence of a musical life: British soul meets psychedelic riffs, glam meets blues, Beatles meets Motown. Auerbach's signature - warm, raw, retro - blends seamlessly with Kane's flair for catchy melodies and his slightly over-the-top crooner pose. "Love Is Cruel", the opener, sounds like a forgotten track from the seventies, while the Flamin' Groovies cover "Slow Death" celebrates rock'n'roll with sparkling nonchalance.

Kane, who created orchestral pop dramas with Alex Turner in the duo The Last Shadow Puppets in the 2000s, is freer here than ever before. Where earlier albums still balanced on the line between coolness and calculation, "Sunlight In The Shadows" feels like a liberation - or rather: like a summer that never ends. "Dan and I were immediately on the same wavelength," says Kane. "Two acoustic guitars, two notepads, no show - it was like going back to the practice room where it all began." And that's exactly where he's drawn back to now: the stage. Because as much as Kane loves the studio, his music only really comes to life when it gets loud. When sweat drips, guitars screech and the bass vibrates. His concerts are not nostalgic flashbacks, but ecstatic celebrations of the moment. Anyone who has experienced him live knows that he is an old-school frontman, one who doesn't cheer the audience, but carries them away. In spring 2026, Miles Kane will bring this spirit to Germany. Four concerts, four evenings full of energy, sweat and guitars: a promise to all those who still love rock with heart, hand and attitude. "It's an album that needs to be played live," says Kane. From March, he will prove it.
