Orginally Byron comes from the USA, more defined it is Milwaukee within the state of Wisconsin. The name of this city is actually pronounced Miliwaukiiieee, whereby the pronouncastion is put on the ie. It' a red indian name and stands for Good Land. That's what Alice Cooper is talking about within the Wayne's World cult Movie as well. And that's where this
artist is from. Dun' know whatever he made him decide to move over here
to Europe, as he used to be quite a successful musician back in the
States as well. He toured with the band Snopek for the 10 years, made
seven albums and supported artists such as Bo Diddley and the Dire
Straits. |
Tonight Byron plays the Village Club in Habach near Garmisch and the austrian border in the south. It's a weekend - time to go out, because no early getting up - next morning, and so there is quite an audiance here, who just wanna have a good night out, including a nice music show. You can see, that Byron lives for his music, partly highly concentrated and mostly with closed eyes, but on the other side everything seems so light as easy flowing. And mind me, he is indeed a great guitarist. His passion belongs to the Beatles and The Who. And so you find tunes on his setlist such a 'Pinball Wizard' and also,the hard to perform live - 'I'm A Walrus'. By the way, the setlist you find below, you must not take for exactly what it is. Because there is improvisation inbetween, or an exchangement of songs, just what the mood tells Byron.... |

The band plays in two sets with a short break inbetween, so all smokers in here get the chance to satisfy their addiction. And please give the drummer Jens and the bassist 21 year old Anika some attention, who's instrument is almost larger then herself. |
Over all we get a colourful mixture of new and old, but freshly served, handmade Rock'n'Roll with a great nostalgic aspect. But what counts most, is the fact, that everything is played with a lot of heart. And that the point in the end. http://www.byronmusic.de/ |
