Guerrilla-gigs in pedestrian zones, jam sessions at school yards, performances at youth-penitentiaries, workshops in Uganda – no, JAMARAM is not what you'd call an average band. And they don't do average music. „We sound like a five course menu on a fork“, says JAMARAM singer Tom Lugo about their sound (release of their recent record LIVE 27th March 2009). „Everything is there, from the starter thru to the dessert – and it tastes delicious!“ Reggae, funk, soul, latin, swing, ska, pop and rock – the eight musicians from Munich/Germany don't know any limits. Also in a geographical sense: they play more than a hundred shows per year in the world's most remote corners.
Tom Lugo: »There is one language everybody understands – music«. „It's about interantional communication“, adds drummer Murxen Alberti. „Our music unites all sorts different people. We don't know any borders and play everywhere.“
Hence the album's title is „Shout It From The Rooftops“: JAMARAM are always and everywhere on the move and they shout their passion from any rooftop. Their message? Joie de vivre. Fun. Positive energy. „Our sound is our experiences' mirror“, explains guitarist Samuel Hopf „and we never get enough.“ The flat-share, in which they live, is open to anyone who wants to jam, resulting in a lot of friendships and connections.“ Their music is not fitted to a specific target audience and not bound by any clichés. „ We are passionate about what we do and want to see it through. If it appeals to people so much the better“, emphasises keyboarder Lionel Wharton.
One can experience that during their LIVE-Tour in April 2009, at the concerts of the Album-Release-Tour and at the summer festivals.
