US Band Info:
they exist since 1994. „so we had enough time to practice“, say robby hahn (vox, git.), Philip Meyer (git.), nik petrek (bass), maik hahn (drums) and jörg feuerstein (keys.) of the roxy flames.
The concept of the roxy flames: a hot mix.
Rock with hip grooves and sing-along hooklines.
music to be remembered - to move the feet of the audience.
Heavy guitars, but also appealing arrangements and ear catching vocals. The quintet collected their share of experience with playing in different bands. Since they play together, they have experimented with a lot of different styles and sounds. But the core of their work always was melodic rock with a strong focus on fine, heavy guitar work, even more since lyle närvänen, former guitarist of the leningrad cowboys, joins the band in 1999. his powerful soli and the significant voice of singer robby hahn are the bands individual features – as the roxy flames are welcome guests on stages all over germany.
So what is the big deal about the roxy flames?
The answer is simple: powerful sound and an explosive stage show.
“we die for rock..n roll.”
German Band Info:
Sie existieren schon seit 1994. "Zeit genug zum Üben hatten wir also", finden Robert Hahn (Vocals, Guitar.), Philip Meyer (Guitar.), Nik Petrek (Bass), Maik Hahn (Drums) und Jörg Feuerstein (Keyboards).
Musik- und Band Erfahrung sammelt sich bei der Frankfurter Band The Roxy Flames an, wie bei anderen Leuten dreckige Unterwäsche. Und genau das merkt man schon beim ersten musikalischen Kontakt mit der Band.
Straighter und locker auf den Punkt gespielter Rock gepaart mit der einzigartigen Stimme vom charismatischen Frontmann Robert Hahn und den explosiven Soli von Gitarist Lyle Närvänen sind die Zutaten aus denen der Roxy Flames eigene Sound entsteht.
Brilliantes Songwriting trifft druckvollen Rock..n Roll. Die Songs sprühen voller hittauglicher, melodischer Arrangements und Lyrics die im Gedächtnis bleiben.
Plakativ instrumentiert und im Widescreen Format, legt die Band großen Wert auf Authentizität. Und dass sie das auch leben, kann jeder bestätigen, der die Band, die Songs und Ihre Shows kennt.
Jegliche Vergleiche würden hinken, die Roxy Flames kopieren nicht, sie kreieren!
Einen Schub in die richtige Richtung erhielt die Arbeit der Roxy Flames, als Lyle Närvänen von den "Leningrad Cowboys" 1999 zur Band stieß. Seine virtuosen Soli sind bei den zahlreichen Live-Auftritten im Rhein-Main-Gebiet und darüber hinaus ebenso zum Markenzeichen geworden wie die unvergleichliche Stimme von Sänger Robert Hahn.
Die Live Gigs der Roxy Flames sind immer ein besonderes Ereignis. Monumentale Spielfreude und Energie sprühen von der Bühne, wenn die Band zum rocken lädt.
Selbstbewusst, Fordernd, Laut, Stark, Gefühlvoll…und jederzeit in der Lage das staunende Publikum zu überraschen und noch einen Gang höher zu schalten.
Nicht nur der Roxy Flames typische klassische oldschool Rocksound, auch die Bühnenpräsenz dieser Band beeindruckt immer wieder aufs Neue. Ihre Konzerte sind "Shows" im wahrsten Sinne des Wortes - auf die eine oder andere Überraschung muss man immer gefasst sein...
Mit diesen Zutaten hat sich die Band in den vergangenen Jahren nicht nur in Frankfurt eine große Fangemeinde erspielt. Auch in Österreich und Portugal konnte die Band auf Tour viele neue Fans gewinnen.

Ever wondered what to do in the event of a nuclear threat?
A while ago I found stuff that inspired me to make this film:
Living Under the Shadow of the Nuclear Umbrella
Both artistic (ensure you get the background music!) and educational, it primarily comprises official British government civil defence advice.
Though source materials are quite aged, much remains relevant today.
I encourage all to visit the YouTube page to learn more (Show support! Rate! Comment!) and responsibly circulate as widely as possible, here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UaIim3Rj7L4
