Culture Club

Wed, 26. Oct 2016, 9.45 PM | BACK TO THE FUTURE

Event Halle, Messe Basel

Both acts are known for being ahead of their time. At the beginning of the 1980s Boy George and his enduring Culture Club paved the way for the New Romantics movement, with their colourful outfits, androgynous looks and soft reggae pop. And at the beginning of the new millennium, Austrian DJ and producer Parov Stelar ushered in the future by co-inventing the electroswing, a mixture of jazz, house and downbeat. Both Culture Club and Parov Stelar are excellent live acts. It will be fascinating to experience these avant-garde representatives of two different musical generations on the same evening.
