"AN EXTRAORDENARY ROCK’N’ROLL ADVENTURE"
Towards the end of 2006 Kid Crystal (BITCH QUEENS) and Hede (ZAMARRO)
had the idea of pooling their strengths and go on a musical adventure
together but without a bass, we all know, any journey’s only half as
fun. So after a legnthy search they where surprised that Sebastian
(FUCKING BEAUTIFUL) was up for it, despite having like the others
plenty on his plate already, he was ready for some bottom end action
(Har Har). At the very first session this constellation gelled and they
new they had something special on their hands, but still it wasn’t
perfect as a distinctive voice was missing.
And that turned out to be a hard nut to crack. But after another
lengthy search they were again surprised to find Giusy (PHEBUS) as
their man. Not only was he a wonderful energetic singer with a fireball
creative spark but also a hard working teamplayer who fit into the
dogs’s eclectic mix, of anything goes, like a glove.
The songs that almost wrote themselves were rehearsed and arranged
until they shone like rough diamonds and the first shows followed suit.
From the Hirscheneck (Basel), the Hill Chill Festival (Riehen), and Gaswerk
(Winterthur), to Mascotte (Zürich) they have gone from strength to
strength and decided in october 08 to record their first album.
„Smokin’“ will be released at the beginning of 2009 and surely no stage
will be safe anymore.
Cheers and down the hatch
DOGS BOLLOCKS
Deutsch
Über DOGS BOLLOCKS gibt’s nicht viele Worte zu verlieren. Vier Mitglieder aus vier erfolgreichen Basler Bands vereint zu einer Rockcombo. Michael Hediger (ZAMARRO) und Kid Krystal (BITCH QUEENS) leiteten im Sommer 2007 dieses neue Projekt ein. Später kam St. Sebastian (FUCKING BEAUTIFUL) und Giusy (PHEBUS) dazu und gaben dem Ganzen noch den letzten Kick! Über die Musikrichtung könnte man an dieser Stelle jahrelang philosophieren was definitiv keinen Sinn machen würde, denn es ist schlicht und einfach R.O.C.K: Straighte Riffs, gute Harmonien, laute Soli und den richtigen Schuss Pop.
Elf Songs sind bereits geschrieben und haufenweise Ideen warten nur darauf vollendet zu werden. Daher ist es allerhöchste Zeit, sich ins Studio zu verziehen und das Material auf CD zu pressen. Dieses Projekt soll im September 2008 mit Deezl Imhof im Foolpark-Studio in Zug realisiert werden.
Die Mitglieder von DOGS BOLLOCKS sind dank ihrer Vergangenheit live-erprobte Bühnensäue und daher ging es nicht lange, bis diese Band für Shows gebucht wurde: Hirscheneck (Basel), HillChill (Festival Basel) & Mascotte (Zürich).
