Although we have temporarily put our Burger & Music program on hold, we are all the more pleased to welcome Ralf with his music on 2 June.
The Augsburg-based singer and guitarist RALF STEINBACHER presents his songs, all of which he has written himself, in his very own style, incorporating a wide range of musical influences from folk, indie, blues and jazz. Thanks to his individual songwriting, Steinbacher always remains authentic and independent, with the lyrics playing a very important role in the tradition of classic "storytelling". As a guitarist, Steinbacher is inspired by artists such as Nick Drake, John Martyn and Joni Mitchell. The use of various open tunings, i.e. alternative open guitar tunings, gives his playing a special character. Steinbacher is also a master of the 5-string banjo and the blues harp, which guarantees a varied concert evening.
Press reviews:
"Tons of feeling ....... a melancholy mood, to which the dark voice of the protagonist fits perfectly. ..... Lyrics with depth, narrative of high quality ." (ROCKTIMES)
"Blues is in the air when the Augsburg singer and songwriter sings to the guitar. But this musician always goes far away from the blues and opens stylistic doors. Inspiring" (FOLKER, 4/22)
"Music as if from a single mold. ... Outstanding realization of moods and atmosphere." (MUSIK AN SICH)
"The musical garment fits perfectly." (MAIN ECHO)
"Songs that are not polished to a high gloss and yet still sparkle .... detailed, lively lyrics" (HOOKED ON MUSIC)
