BATEAU IVRE
Paul Kuchenbuch – lead vocals, gtrs, bass, brass
Nick Whitaker – keys & synth, backing vocals, gtrs, bass
BATEAU IVRE’s Post Folk conjures up images of stormy seas, barren deserts, and mist-shrouded jungles. The words take you to the depths of human existence between hope and despair. Paul and Nick create a timeless backdrop incorporating everything from glittering Indie guitars, Yiddish folk songs, ambient electronics, piano jazz, and contemporary classical music, against which Paul’s wistful voice, reminiscent of Jeff Buckley and Thom Yorke, rises from mysterious murmurs to emotional falsettos.
Since 2011, BATEAU IVRE has released four studio albums, one EP and one single, and played concerts in Berlin, Munich, Karlsruhe, and Würzburg.
