Gery Gerspitzer - „Fredl Fesl“-Abend
He is the likeable bard from Lower Bavaria, known by everyone. Not only is he a significant virtuoso on his guitar, but also a word acrobat. A jack of all trades and the true inventor of Bavarian music cabaret - Fredl Fesl! As soon as he sang about the window-nailing with Liesl or the ballad of Knight Hadubrand and accompanied himself on the guitar, he had the laughing audience on his side. For 30 years, the Bavarian songwriter Fredl Fesl was on stage. In addition to the satirical and funny lyrics, the lengthy ironic introductions became Fredl Fesl's trademark.
In Hof an der Saale in Upper Franconia, there is a musician who undoubtedly masters the Lower Bavarian dialect and is familiar with the songs like no other, as he has been listening to them on cassettes and records since he was fifteen. Musician, songwriter, entertainer and radio presenter Gery Gerspitzer brings the skills of the original rock back to the Bavarian stages in his new solo program, the "Fredl Fesl Evening," and lets his powerful repertoire resonate authentically. Gery Gerspitzer has put together a Best-Of program that is unparalleled. Since March 2018, he has been successfully touring with his "Fredl Fesl Evening," providing entertaining evenings with a guarantee of laughter through the unforgettable songs. Whether it's the "Soccer Song," "The Song of Intoxication," or the "King's Yodel" - he has them all in his luggage. With a flannel shirt, guitar, and a filled beer glass, Gery Gerspitzer stands before his audience and brings back memories of a man who wrote Bavarian music history - Fredl Fesl.
Gery's greatest concern is to keep the songs of the Bavarian original alive, to spread them, and to provide the audience with a pleasant evening.
This is not just any "cover evening." No. Fredl Fesl himself was a guest in the program, and over time the two have become friends. Fredl once said: “Nothing better can happen than when someone plays your songs again.”
Doors open: 19:00, the event is not accessible.
