wenn die drei von der swingstelle loslegen, glaubt man daß django wieder auferstanden wäre - bei den musette-walzern qualmen die gauloises von ganz alleine und bei den beliebten mitreissenden melodien hört man es immer ungemein swingen - pompe manouche heißt dieser rhythmus, der bis jetzt noch jeden gepackt hat...
"egal ob metaller oder stadlfan wir kriegen sie alle" - das ist das motto der sympathischen drei - und so spielen sie songs aus aller welt (we've got a world that swings!) in allen erdenklichen sprachen...
alex bomba ist junger begabter musikant mit ambitionen - simon ort bearbeitet den kontrabass als hätte er es von kindesbeinen an von seiner mutter gelernt - und norman ort hatte es satt immer nur vorm pc zu sitzen...alle drei singen je nach verfassung mehr oder minder flüssig in italienisch, französisch, romanes, kroatisch, türkisch und englisch... oder auch mal gar nicht
ALEX BOMBA TERZETT
a drinking band with a gypsy jazz problem.
BIO:
Alex Bomba, was born in Würzburg, Germany.
Alex Bomba is a true "wacken-fan"- and attended the festival for over 30 years (well it felt like!) - he is very well known as the only gay-metal promoter in the world. His musical world of anthrax and hammerfall crashed, when he first heard stochelo rosenbergs playing. since then he never played hardccore again and changed the festival from wacken to samois...:-)
BIO:
Simon Ort, was born in Würzburg, Germany.
Simon Ort is a bassmaniac - soon in his life - he was not yet born!! - he grew up with the thrilling sound of a doublebass, played by his mother. As a teenager he was more interested in the electric bass and joined several bands such as "Skyve" and others, Today he masters the doublebass and plays bass in the "hannes conrads band" - he is still involved in some other band projects - as a singer - such as "combo kanista" - also he is involved in some jazz duos and trios - all playing through the realbook - without forgetting that jazz-music is for everyone and should be played as popular street music. His love for the gypsyjazz grew with listening to bireli lagrene, tchavolo schmitt and django - and his father, who is a real "jazz manouche-maniac".
BIO:
Norman Ort, was born in Würzburg, Germany.
At the age of 13 he bought a cheap archtop guitar and learned to play as autodidact, Around 1975 he joined a local punk-rock band "The Mummenschanz". The band was soon part of the German New Wave Movement and toured through Germany with 50 gigs a year. They played the soundtrack of the "no future" generation.
During the eighties he switched to computer based music - and forgot the guitar. In these days he realised some multimedia projects in his own studio - combining sound, poetry, music, light, videos. With his partner he toured through Europe at many video and art festivals.
In the late nineties he discovered Django again -those were the sounds he heard, when he was a teenager: Schnuckenack Reinhardt, Titi Winterstein and the young Bireli Lagrene.
Today he is playing Djangos Music and other acoustic music in several bands and runs a guitarshop for selmer/maccaferri style guitars. He plays according to the motto: Jazz shoud not hit the street, but it should be played there - gadjo drom!
