Oum Shatt (D) - Live

Arabic surf rock

OUM SHATT perform a radically pure and minimal form of rock'n'roll, with arabic references. It's a deep and dark analog dance construct, percussive and nonchalant, based on Jonas Poppe's intense voice and the slow and deep surfguitar sound and electronic connotatons. A bit of Ricky Nelson with a moustache. Or Ian Curts naked in Cairo, halfpast three in the morning. Lyrically they combine topics like sex and crisis, atack and escape or dilemmas, love andlies.

OUM SHATT is a Berlin boy group below the poverty line, consistng of singer and innovator Jonas Poppe(Kissogram), the guitarist and actor Hannes Lehmann (Ex-Contriva, Mina) and drummer Chris Imler (Driver and Driver,Die Türen), the Don Corleone of Berlin rock'n'roll and Jörg Wolschina on Bass & keys.
