Simon & Jan - Heiße Luft

There it is! Their fans had been camping out in front of their rehearsal space for years, waiting impatiently for a sign—until white smoke finally rose!
There were new songs, ideas, wild fantasies—and with all the hype of the past few years, all it took was a tiny spark to set the whole place ablaze! The curtain rises. And like a phoenix rising from the ashes, Simon & Jan take the stage across Germany to turn the world upside down with their new show.
Germany’s most highly decorated singer-songwriter duo at the moment remains as humble as ever. From fragile, tender songs—carried by two guitars and two voices—to sophisticated loop arrangements and orchestral declarations of war, it’s all there. Simon & Jan are finally back and pouring their hearts out to us!
