Once a month, our Fantasiar Bar at Rostock's city harbor is transformed into the perfect after-work location. A cool drink in your hand, soft live music in your ear and a view of the Warnow - that's how the end of the working day sounds like the sea.
On the first Wednesday of every month, a new act provides the right sound - sometimes relaxed acoustics, sometimes rousing grooves, but always open air and with a breathtaking panorama of the setting sun over the Warnow.
This Wednesday, Kaddatz, the alter ego of Wismar songwriter Matthias Güthner, is our guest.
Kaddatz are very special individuals. They are anxiety-driven, vulnerable and all too often feel like a mechanical typewriter between smartphones and tablets. When a Kaddatz plays you a few songs on his old guitar, his music is reminiscent of a crackling vinyl on a record player framed in teak.
An old soul, you could say. He writes cynical lyrics about our hectic society
society without offering any solutions. That's not his job either, because he's just a singer. And what does that sound like, you ask?
Well, Kaddatz likes Gordon Lightfoot and Nick Drake, he likes South Carolina bluegrass
and pop country. He would love to record an album in Nashville. But he has
afraid of flying. That's why he recorded his current album "Hormonal Instabilities" in Wismar. It's nice there too. And there's no airport.
