The Dropkick Murphys come back to Switzerland to give us everything we missed the last months with a great headliner show: Bawling, pogoing and lots and lots of beer. Who has seen them in February 2020 in the BernExpo or already before knows that the humid concerts are a feast for all punks, Guinness lovers and pogo rabbits. On Saturday, February 4, 2023, the St. Jakobshalle Basel will become an Irish punk rock mecca and hits like “I’m Shipping Up To Boston”, “Rose Tattoo” or “Johnny, I Hardly Knew Ya” will be served on a treadmill. And as if that wasn’t enough, American ska-punkers The Interrupters also grace us along with The Murphys. With such an energetic killer combo, a feast is guaranteed!

With his hit single “Alors on dance” Stromae sang himself into the hearts of the fans eleven years ago. In 2013, the exceptional talent released “Racine Carrée”, an album of all records (more than 2 million copies sold), which opened the doors to legendary halls and festivals around the globe. The maestro combines his inescapable hits with incredible live performances, playing more than 200 concerts and reaching 1 million spectators in two years.

Stromae is an innate alchemist of opposites and has found the magic formula to mix pop, rap, cumbia, Afro-beat and other traditional music styles. In early October, he unveiled the new single “Santé” – a tribute to the working class. With the skillful blend of a South American-inspired cumbia rhythm and upbeat electro influences, Stromae picks up right where he left off many years ago. Now the journey finally continues. In the summer of 2022, the passionate musician will play an exclusive festival show at the Paléo Festival, and tickets sold out within minutes. So were the shows on the preview tour in February in Paris, Brussels and Amsterdam.

The “Multitude Tour” will take Stromae through the biggest halls in Europe and on April 26, 2023, he will bring his new show to the St. Jakobshalle Basel. If you want to secure one of the hotly sought-after tickets, you have to hurry.

Luke Mockridge tours live in 2023 and it’s going to be TRIPPY

After the successful closing of his last live tour with over 600,000 visitors, Luke Mockridge is heading back to the stage again in 2023. With his new program “TRIPPY” starting in April the tour will take him through Germany, Austria and Switzerland.

Luke Mockridge has the impression for a long time that we are living in a movie. A film that is more extreme than any film we have ever seen. Has the reality already caught up with the fiction? Clowns are becoming presidents, presidents are becoming clowns, and we are somewhere in the middle of it all, without knowing whether we are still allowed to laugh about it.
Luke has no doubt: We are allowed to laugh, we should laugh and we have to laugh. About everything, everyone, loudly, at any time and now more than ever! Full of regained confidence, Germany’s most successful comedian gets down to work: he confronts all the absurdities of our time with unconditional optimism, a bunch of instruments and a light-heartedness that only a 90s kid can have.

An evening full of nostalgia anchored in the here & now awaits the audience, a comeback despite Cancel-Culture. So close that everyone will find oneself and so creative that activists will stick to it. Everything trippy! Do we even still know who we are? Does our algorithm knows better? Is the world really as bad as they always try to sell us? Blue or red pill? Come by… this is going to be TRIPPY!
