Über die Veranstaltung

Swedish cult icon Jay-Jay Johanson takes the stage for a very special evening, the 30th anniversary of his legendary debut album, Whiskey. A cornerstone of emotional electronica and European trip-hop, the record launched a singular career built on smoky jazz, electronic atmospheres, sophisticated pop, and Johanson's unmistakably melancholic voice. Recorded in the Stockholm archipelago with a Bristol trip-hop heartbeat, Whiskey became an instant classic.

Tracks like "So Tell the Girls That I Am Back in Town" and "Believe in Us" introduced his signature sound film noir arrangements, jazzy crooner vocals, and a haunting elegance that made him one of the 1990s' most unique voices. Thirty years and fifteen albums later, Johanson remains as restless and active as ever.

He's toured from Ukraine to Brazil, China to Mexico, sold out London and Paris, and collaborated with Cocteau Twins and The Knife. This one-night-only concert celebrates the album that started it all, along with a handpicked selection from his extraordinary career.
