The Hoodoo Men / Lovesick Duo

The Hoodoo Men play electric Chicago Blues as it was presented in small ensembles on Maxwell Street in Chicago during the 1950s. This formation offers the opportunity to reduce the blues to its essence, without the sometimes overloaded arrangements of today. Details about the musicians: Peter Samek, vocals, harmonica, slide guitar. Blues aficionado. Gerry Höller, vocals, guitar, backing vocals. (Blues aficionado) Wolfgang Leinweber, washboard and spoons.

Lovesick – these are Paolo Roberto Pianezza and Francesca Alinovi from Italy. They bring an exhilarating vintage sound to the stage! The duo is known for their love of American country, rock 'n' roll, and western swing from the 1940s and 50s – authentic, charming, and with a healthy dose of groove. Paolo effortlessly switches between electric and acoustic guitar, lap steel, resonator, and dobro, while Francesca keeps the rhythm going with her double bass and built-in brush pad. Together, they create more sound than one would expect from two people – with wonderfully harmonious vocals and a touch of nostalgia. Lovesick takes their audience on a musical journey through time – straight into the sparkling era of rock 'n' roll!
