    KONZERTBÜR O PRESSEMITTEILUNG VOM 26.11.2019 Konzertbüro Schoneberg GmbH Amtsgericht Münster · HRB 3232 USt.-ID-Nummer: DE126111533 Geschäftsführer: Till Schoneberg www.schoneberg.de schonebergkonzerte Pokey LaFarge Für exklusives Konzert in Deutschland Der in St. Louis beheimatete Sänger, Songwriter und Multiinstrumentalist Pokey LaFarge schöpft aus der tiefen Quelle amerikanischer Musiktraditionen, um eine unverwechselbar ei- gene Musik zu kreieren, die eher zeitlos ist und Genregrenzen in einer Weise überschreitet, die die offenherzige Einstellung des Künstlers widerspiegelt. Indem er seiner Musik u.a. Elemente von frühem Jazz, Ragtime, Country-Blues, Western-Swing einverleibte, hat LaFarge ein lebhaftes, zutiefst ausdrucksvolles Œuvre geschaffen. Durch seine umfassende, musikalische Vision und sein Gespür für lebendige Geschichten hat er auf die Art etwas ganz Eigenes kreiert. Darüber hinaus genießt Pokey LaFarge die Reputation, ein uner- müdlicher und einzigartig charismatischer Live-Performer zu sein, der mit seinen gefeierten Auftritten ein loyales internationales Publikum erobert hat. Jack White, seit langem ein Verehrer, brachte 2011 auf seinem Label Third Man Records die EP “Chitlin’ Cockin’ Time In Cheatham County” und 2013 das Album “Pokey LaFarge” heraus. Au- ßerdem nahm er ihn als Opening Act auf seine Nordamerikatournee mit, als er sein eigenes Album “Blunderbuss” (auf dem Pokey als Gast auftauchte) live präsentierte. Im selben Jahr nahm Pokey LaFarge mit Vince Giordanos Nighthawks den Jazzstandard “Lovesick Blues” für den Soundtrack zu Martin Scorseses brillanter HBO-Serie “Boardwalk Empire” auf. Pokey LaFarge 26.04.20 Berlin, Roadrunner Paradise allg. VVK-Start: 29.11.19 um 10 Uhr | Tickets ab 25€ zzgl. Geb.

  • Lafarge, Pokey
    Pioneer Hall of Fame: Pokey LaFarge, class of 2001 The University High School Alumni Association honors Pokey LaFarge, class of 2001, as a 2014 Hall of Fame Alumni Award recipient for his contributions to his profession and civic service. As a young boy, LaFarge was impacted profoundly by both of his grandfathers, each of whom influenced him with their own passion. One was a musician in St. Louis and gave LaFarge his first guitar. The other was an amateur historian and taught LaFarge about important historical events, such as the Civil War and World War II. With a passion for history and literature, LaFarge effectively combined his grandfathers’ passions with blues music. After graduating from U-High in 2001, LaFarge hitchhiked throughout the United States and earned a living playing for the public on sidewalks and streets. In 2007, LaFarge released Marmalade, his first album. Shortly after that, LaFarge released Beat, Move and Shake (2008) and Riverboat Soul (2010). He was well on his way to becoming a well-known figure on the music scene. He has since traveled to all lower 48 states, 15 countries, and 7 Canadian provinces. He has played in some of music’s most famous halls, including The Ryman Auditorium in Nashville, Tennessee, Red Rocks Amphitheatre in Morrison, Colorado, and has played twice at Radio City Music Hall in New York City, New York. During this time he also assembled his band, named Pokey LaFarge. In 2010, Pokey LaFarge was named Best New Band at the Newport Folk Festival in Newport, Rhode Island. The Riverfront Times in St.
