   About B.B. & The Blues Shacks


20 YEARS B. B. & The Blues Shacks

2009 B. B. & The Blues Shacks are clebrating their 20th anniversary!

They are firmly based on the roots of traditional R..n..B – playing good music that entertains, delivers fun and captivates the listeners. That..s just one of the reasons why they trade as Europe..s best Blues band.

With their mixture of Blues and Soul, the Hildesheim Boys quote those giants like B.B. King, Little Milton, and in the process, they transfer the best of the good old times into the present via their own compositions.

The five professional musicians master their instruments with virtuosity, and the can make the audience truly sense how much feeling there is in the sound of handmade music. The trademark voice of singer Michael Arlt tells us about the great topics like love and joy of life – while the groove of the band truly hypnotizes us.

A concert by the B.B.s leaves a great DNA in your mind and soul.

„Die B.B.s must surely be the best blues band that I have ever heard in Germany.“ Götz Alsmann, WDR Radio and TV, Germany

„The boys are in demand worldwide.“ SAT1 Niedersachen/Bremen

„Such Blues you just love to hear.“ GALA Lifestyle Magazin, Germany

Press quotes:

„Five good looking and, above all, well sounding musicians…“
(RTL nord)

„The band has achieved a reputation as a live act which lifts an evening up to a real emergency status.“
(Neue Presse Hannover)

"There are good bands, there are very good bands, and there are bands who define the standards. B.B. & The Blues Shacks – without a doubt – belong to the latter category."
(Dietmar Hoscher, World Blues Foundation, Blues expert at CONCERTO)

„These Germans really provide a truly high energy appearance … and in the end, they are all shouting for more.“
(BrooWaha Newspaper, Los Angeles)

„They are really the best out there.“
(Jeff Scott, Radio-DJ from Los Angeles)

„A really rare musical quality.“
(Daily newspaper Le Locle, CH)

„The band has a sound that reaches a wide audience.“
(Block Magazine, NL)


LIVE @ DOHENY BLUES FESTIVAL 08 (USA-Dana Point/CA)


20 Jahre B. B. & The Blues Shacks

2009 ist Jubiläumsjahr. Die Band feiert ihren 20. Geburtstag!

Zu einem B.B. & The Blues Shacks-Konzert sind schon einige ohne klare Vorstellung vom Blues gekommen, aber keiner ist so gegangen. Die fünf Musiker lassen ihr Publikum mit musikalischem Können und Spielfreude spüren, wieviel Gefühl in dem Sound der 40er und 50er Jahre liegt. Echte Menschen spielen auf echten Instrumenten Songs, die sie lieben. Und das reißt mit!

B.B. & The Blues Shacks beeindrucken gerade live mit Stücken ihrer Vorbilder wie T-Bone Walker oder Sonny Boy Williamson, aber auch ihre Eigenkompositionen swingen und shuffeln gewaltig. Darum gelten sie auch als beste Bluesband Europas. Nach einem Abend mit Michael Arlt, Andreas Arlt, Dennis Koeckstadt, Bernhard Egger und Henning Hauerken weiß jeder, was Blues wirklich ist.
