Direct from Austria – Willi Resetarits and the Stubnblues Allstars
Chicago, IL—February 2, 2010— The DANK Haus in historic Lincoln Square hosts Austrian Star Willi Resetarits and the 4 piece Stubnblues Allstars interpreting a wild mixture of folk music, Wienerlieder (traditional Viennese ballads), Jazz and Blues as Stubnblues. Willi engages the audience in English between selections with explanations of the Viennese dialect lyrics. The performance will be set intimately to keep the interaction high.
Stubnblues? In 1994, Willi Resetarits started what has become Stubnblues. It’s music far beyond blues. It’s funk. Samba. Folklore. Soul. Viennese songs. It’s poems and stories. Back in the day, a Stubn was the only heated room in the house. It was the place where people gathered, ate, talked and sang. Stubnblues is not afraid to deal with troublesome issues; with something not being right, with failure, pain and miscommunication. Still all the while, there’s beauty, hope and joy to it.
The event is Saturday March 27, 2010 at 7:30 pm. Tickets are only $5.00. Please reserve your place. Refreshments available.
