From Goethe Institut:
Goethe-Institut Vietnam proudly presents FOTOS on tour in South-East Asia. The popular German Pop-/Rock-Band FOTOS from the city of Hamburg shall play two concerts in Hanoi and one in Haiphong before heading to Bangkok. A workshop and a third concert will follow in Thailand. The FOTOS will play gigs from their latest album “Porzellan” and more recent hits.
The tour is jointly organized by Goethe-Institut and Hanoi Youth Theatre. By inviting the FOTOS a popular German band Hanoi and Haiphong students – especially those who are part of the PASCH partner school program – shall experience the latest rocking German tunes – all live!
Pop music made in Germany is divers , internationally acclaimed and most successful since the 1980ies. If Electronic-Music or Rap, Rock or Pop: Bands like Kraftwerk, Scorpions, Tote Hosen, Tokio Hotel and last but not least FOTOS mesmerize huge crowds. Popular tunes and German language made Falco´s “Amadeus” or Nena´s “99 Luftballons” mega hits on an international scale.
The FOTOS are four smart musicians: Thomas Hessler (Vocal, Guitar), Deniz Erarslan (Guitar), Friedrich Weiss (Bass) and Benedikt Schnermann (Drums).
Bassist Friedrich describes founding the band like this: “These four boys got randomly together and just matched really well on a musical and on a personal level.”
Their style of music is individual and not easy to put a label on. In their own way the band is mixing Indie-Rock/Pop, with German Rock and Electronic Sounds.
The FOTOS perform since 2005 and have released three albums so far. The FOTOS have been successful in Germany, England, India, Indonesia and Mexico. They played festivals in Austria, China and Kazakhstan.
