Dream catcher

About

Phishbacher are seductive. They are riveting. They grab you by the hand, beckon and say, ‘Let me take you on a journey to the end of the world and back.’ Their music is a melodic, dramatic concoction grounded in the deep tradition of American jazz without being limited by it. When Phishbacher step onstage, they risk everything. Their concerts are nothing less than a reckless high wire act of off the charts technical perfection that never loses sight of its single goal: to mesmerize the audience, and, for a few hours, have them take flight and dive into an enchanting soundscape far beyond the ordinary.

Three musicians – three countries (US, DE, SRB), and as many musical backgrounds – a great basis for coloring originals and hit songs equally in the trio’s unique hue of a sound. U2, Radiohead, Coldplay, The Beatles, Genesis, Michael Jackson, Black Eyed Peas and Katy Perry receive top-notch Phishbacher treatment. Walter Fischbacher, Goran Vujic and Ulf Stricker are masters at catapulting a piece of music into the stratosphere while simulta-neously driving their rhythmic roots deep into the bedrock. Not a single song goes off the rail. Each piece is bursting with playfulness and just enough discipline to see the band sli-de along the edge of the abyss. It is this flirt with the desaster, this controlled madness that enlivens simple melodies and lifts Phishbacher above the masses. Phishbacher – an electrifying trio that raises jazz to cult status.
