Another live stream concert in the Gelting ambush: This time artist Paul Marc Adams and his band played for peace and freedom - and against discrimination.
Gelting - “Boom Chaka Boom Bäng” - hardly any listener could sit quietly in the living room from Gelting to Cape Town with this reggae. A rhythm that carried over, a music with a profound message for diversity, freedom, peace and against discrimination - played by top international musicians.
Live stream concert with South African musicians
The live stream concert with the South African musician Paul Mark Adams with band and the Geretsried exceptional musician Florian Sagner (flugelhorn, percussion) from the ambush was a grandiose premiere that had previously been shared 150 times over the world via social media. As a result, hundreds were there live on screen and applauded by chat at the end of the broadcast.
Paul Mark Adams comes from Cape Town, from this wonderful wine region, which is almost reminiscent of the Alpine foothills, combined with endlessly long sandy beaches. Adams has been living in Ohlstadt for eight years. The professional musician, who plays the guitar and animates his audience as a front singer, is involved in addition to his own music for the young music scene in Munich and the surrounding area.
Grandiose ambush premiere
His hometown Cape Town stands for cultural diversity, so his music is also interspersed with style elements from all over the world, from reggae, funk, jazz, Latin, hip-hop to traditional African sound elements. Songs that can turn up rhythmically, become dynamic and almost ecstatic, but also ballad-like calm, but always with a good groove.
The likeable South African has the connection to the audience, even if they are at the other end of the streaming line. For the current band project "Flavas of Funk" he has brought in top musicians. The first album “Hold my Hand” will be released in November.
Also on board are Boris Boskovic (bass), Dzenán Suntic (drums), Markus Vetter (lead guitar) and Pablo Struff (piano). Two years ago, Adams and Florian Sagner met, only to, as the two say, "do a little street music for festivals". Now it has become a fixed project that is being created in Sagner's recording studio in Geretsried.
Concert full of confidence and joie de vivre
In these difficult corona times for the musicians, this ambush concert was an evening full of confidence and joie de vivre. Because Paul Mark Adams has hope: "Together we will weather the crisis and will have a better world on the other side", he is convinced.
The concert was not the first live stream in ambush: a performance by Munich singer Carolin Roth was recently broadcast. The very first live stream, however, was in April, at a reading by Dr. Pablo Hagemeyer.
