When I play Johnny Cash’s songs like "Personal Jesus", "Solitary Man” or "Hurt" with my guitar on stage, you could think that the master himself graces us with his presence. These songs are true – an atmosphere that you only can find when there’s a great voice combined with a powerful acoustic guitar, which opens ears and hearts. Since more than 20 years I’m performing on stage now, playing with different formations I’ve learned to be a singer, bass and guitar player. My diversified taste in music is reflected in different projects, that I’ve been involved in: German and American folk, funk and rock – and even Neue Deutsche Welle (German New Wave). I’ve been touring through the USA seven times. Together with my band. I’ve been invited twice to join the North West Folklife Festival in Seattle, and I also played in Finland, Austria and Canada, and now: ... Castor Sings Cash - songs and stories of Johnny Cash ... this is the title of my actual solo program. Naturally with songs in the interpretation of Mr. Johnny Cash, and – to prevent stereotypes – this time not only country songs. With this revelation I’m not only delighting the convinced fans of Johnny Cash, but also and especially my audience, who appreciates the lyrics and their absolutely convincing interpretation. Because – as is so often the case – the quiet tones create the power of these songs. As sincere and honest as Cash had interpreted songs by great artists and bands like U2, Nick Cave, Tom Petty, Depeche Mode, Neil Diamond or Nine Inch Nails at the end of his magnificent career, you will see me performing live with my guitar and my voice, which makes you goose bumps. Of course it’s not easy to follow in the footsteps of such an outstanding artist! The interpretations of the new songs, however, make my repertoire so exciting. Dare to be curious... I’m not looking out for the ’big locations’ of the world – these songs need the intimacy of the smaller stages with a typical club-like atmosphere! Let yourself be carried away by Castor into a world of true feelings with all the bads and goods!
