AWARDS 2011 TONIGHT’S MUSIC COMES FROM… Shantel
One of Europe’s most popular live performers is in town with a genre-defying mix of hedonistic party hits
Shantel is one of Europe’s most impressive live performers, who has been called “Germany’s big- gest export hit” (Prinz Hamburg), a “trailblazing musical wunderkind” (Goethe-Institute, Lon- don) and a “European phenomenon” (Vogue). Shantel took just two years to propel himself to
the top of the list of Europe’s most in-demand live acts, as a quick glance at his extensive tour schedule will show. “When Shantel and his Disko Partizani Band
play, a crowd of thousands dances,” says Mobil, while FAZ writes: “Anyone who has ever seen one of Shantel’s immensely successful concerts knows: everyone will dance ecstatically and euphorically.” At present, alongside his numerous live appearances, Shantel is working on a new studio
album, with the working title Anarchy & Romance, which will be released in 2012. Featur- ing Shantel’s ingeniously arranged compositions, the music won’t fi t into any established genre and will offer a mix of surprising songs, unconven- tional ballads and hedonistic party hits fi lled with the spirit of 1960s garage rock, beat and electro funk. Vintage electric guitars, drums and a Fender Rhodes piano will play together with the brass players of Shantel’s live band. Shantel turns well-established pop and rock
clichés upside down. His latest album Kosher Nostra: Jewish Gangsters Greatest Hits (a compila- tion put together with Oz Almog) was critically acclaimed on its release and features a wild mix of swing, jazz, the twist, the Charleston and the charm of Yiddish songs and ballads.
