Marina & The Kats
Austria
Marina Zettl - vocals, drums
Thomas Mauerhofer - guitar, vocals
Harald Baumgartner - drums, vocals
Peter Schoenbauer - bass, bass drum, vocals
This former "smallest big band in the world", stylish in modern/nostalgic outfits for a good Lindy Hop, has developed into a European force for "fresh, innovative indie swing" in the almost ten years of its existence. The elegant drum rhythms of up to three of the four band members, the gypsy grooves from guitar and bass and the aggressive vocals of the "cat in chief" Marina bring the popular sound of the 40s into the here and now. On their current album "Friendly Fire", the hymnic title track and the yearning ballad "Everything Is Fine" shine brightly. Everything will be fine, even if the opposite is true.
