Fun To Play And Pleasure To Listen
Roksy, Roba
Lucia Wien, Austria 20260122
Thursday and the city is (a-)live: Paleface Swiss play for the heavy minds, the end of radio for the noise heads. b.sides presents Yunger, Gikks Für Chiara. And further down the Gürtel past Carina, Kramladen, Coco, Chelsea and Loop, a new club has opened last summer, where ones the Gürtel Bräu was.
Good atmosphere and handwritten messages welcome the guests of a mighty fun double concert at Lucia. During the evening, members of acts like Josh. and from Tonherd will turn up on stage. As starter, Roba serve their Italian Pop like back at Aera sparkling as their debut single „Schöne müde Frau“ from their first album „Himmel wieder blau“ which came out in November.
The ballad „Geht schon irgendwie“ must not be missing, like a Nirvana fill-in talking about the nineties and „Game Boy“. „Valdobbiadene“ features several cork poppers and reminds to switch off: ‚sonst heut‘ keine Pläne’, while another tells „Wir machen es uns schön“.
Host of the night are Roksy, who appeared e.g. with Ivery (who releases a new single this very night). In November, they released their debut album „Leben in Echt“ on CD as well, and they also have earlier singles like „Heul Boy“, „Gummi Girl“ and „Me-Time“, that even features a drum solo. For „Jugendwahn“, the ‚stole‘ the idea to write a sign by Now.
Coming to „Plan A“, they thank Michi Schatzmann for the production and ‚unpacking everything rhythm-wise‘. As encore, they perform „Maschinerie“, sharing their thoughts on the music industry. From light Indie Pop to darker and heavier notes, Roksy have it all.
Supported by the marvelous sound and light show at Lucia, the double concert is a full success. And soon, likes of Mellie Meteors & The Pitch or Lucy Dreams will use the great technic for their live action.
