Phillip Boa and the Voodooclub - play singles + songs from their catalogue
Phillip Boa and the Voodooclub are one of the most renowned and celebrated German bands, also recognized by international critics. On 07.03.2025, the band will perform their significant avant-garde pop at the Kulturzentrum Pumpwerk. To this day, they are the German band with the most "Album & Single of the Week" awards in the British music press. After many intense years and albums, the retrospective "Blank Expression - A History of Singles 1986-2016" was released by Capitol Records/Universal Music and reached number 8 in the German album charts. Boa's lyrics blend absurd daydreams, love songs, and sometimes bizarre and disturbing content; however, Boa's greatest strength may be his ability to consistently find poetic beauty that underscores everything he writes. In 2023, the band re-released their iconic album "Boaphenia." Originally released in 1993, the album is now considered a cult classic. It was recorded in London, New York, Long Island, and Malta, and produced by Tony Visconti, Craig Leon, Eroc, and Boa himself. Boa stated that "Boaphenia" was inspired by his experiences in the early 90s, particularly the cultural and social changes occurring at that time. In August 2024, the Polydor major debut album “Copperfield” was released as a re-edition via Capitol Records/Universal Music and reached number 12 in the album charts as the best re-entry. On stage, the Voodooclub has performed with bands and artists such as David Bowie, Bob Dylan, Nick Cave, Sonic Youth, Björk, Iggy Pop, Manic Street Preachers, and many others. In his compelling songs, music rebel Phillip Boa does not shy away from frank words regarding the domestic entertainment industry. This fighting nature is especially evident in his live performances with the Voodooclub. Phillip Boa is always worth seeing live, as he embodies his music and lyrics on stage. This experience should not be missed by his fans and music enthusiasts at the Pumpwerk.
