Døre kl 20 / koncert kl 21

Forestil dig Roky Erickson med Sun Ra Arkestra som backing band eller The Velvet Underground under ledelse af Wilson Pickett. Anubis og Kalis kærlighedsbarn. King Khan And The Shrines kommer til København med deres spektakulære liveshow. DJ Record Turnover fyrer op for pladespillerne før og efter koncerten. Præsenteret i samarbejde med smash!bang!pow!.

Siden King Khan formede The Shrines i 1999, har den Berlin-baserede oktet skabt sig et rygte som et af de mest underholdende live-bands verden har set siden Ike & Tina. King Khan And The Shrines har solide rødder i garagerocken, men de er meget mere end et hvilket som helst psykedelisk soul-band. Forestil dig nærmere et møde mellem Rocky Erickson med Sun Ra Arkestra som backing band og The Velvet Underground under ledelse af Wilson Pickett. Anubis og Kalis kærlighedsbarn eller James Brown i Bollywood.

Med den rablende og karismatiske Arish Khan i spidsen er det blevet til 12 udgivelser for det ustoppelige band, og de har i to årtier spredt stjernestøv og cremet gospel verden over og spillet på festivaler som SXSW, Coachella, Bestival, Pitchfork Festival og Big Day Out. De er kendte for at efterlade deres publikum som et svedigt orgie, så gør dig klar til en spektakulær dansefest når King Khan & The Shrines kommer forbi ALICE til oktober.

“If musical salvation is what you need, if your soul is searching for true absolution, look no further.... Let King Khan & The Shrines come into your mind, body and soul to heal your every hurt.”
