BATEAU IVRE
Paul Kuchenbuch – voc, gtr, b, brass, key
Nick Whitaker – key, voc, gtr, b
Tobias Niederreiner – d, perc, key, b, voc
Bateau Ivre’s Post-Apocalyptic Art Pop conjures up images of barren deserts, mist-shrouded jungles and stormy seas. The words take you to the depths of human existence between hope and despair. Against Nick’s and Tobi’s timeless backdrop incorporating guitar-pop and Yiddish folk songs, ambient electronics and contemporary classical music, Paul’s wistful voice, reminiscent of Jeff Buckley and Thom Yorke, rises from mysterious murmurs to emotional falsettos.
