The Hamburg Blues Band feat. Inga Rumpf

The Hamburg Blues Band meets The Women In Rock feat. Inga Rumpf A super session put together especially for this night, a chapter in rock & blues history, unique in this form! A summit meeting between the St. Pauli blues rockers and the grande dame of the German rock, soul & blues scene, Inga Rumpf. The band around Hamburg rock shouter Gert Lange, often compared to Joe Cocker, Reggie Worthy (Ike & Tina Turner, Eric Burdon), Eddie Filipp (Sweet, Inga Rumpf, Clem Clempson Band) and guitar shooting star Krissy Matthews (‘This guy is the real deal’/Beth Hart), blends hard-hitting guitar blues rock with soul, psychedelic, rhythm & blues, boogie and even forays into jazz, playing with enthusiasm and a sense of tradition. The special guest this evening, Inga Rumpf, celebrated international success 50 years ago. Inga Rumpf, who grew up in Hamburg's St. Georg district, was already on stage at the age of 19 as the lead singer of the folk combo ‘City Preachers’. She enjoyed international success with the rock bands ‘Frumpy’ and ‘Atlantis’ and toured the USA with superstars such as Aerosmith and Lynyrd Skynyrd. In 2005, a dream came true when B.B. King invited her to join him on his farewell tour. Rolling Stone once called Inga ‘Germany's only world-class rock, blues and gospel singer’. The all-star line-up is rounded off by organist Frank Tischer (Miller Anderson, Spencer Davis Group). Together, they guarantee a night of top-class music with a late happy ending.
