about
Blue Babies are a ska'n'roll band from Freiburg, Germany. The bass swirls, the accordion flies, the saxophone jumps ... For the last 17 years, the quintet from South Germany is rocking the republic. Whether city hall or theater, club, streetcar, café or hairdresser, the Blue Babies play wherever people can dance! Their Ska'n'Roll versions of hard rock anthems, Boney M. audibles, Johnny Cash classics, as well as their own musical numbers are small marvels and their stage performance is legendary: Everything that goes in the legs and opens the heart. Dressed in suits the Blue Babies commit themselves just two things: the love to good (and well played) music and the happiness of the audience. Damn the charts, casting bands, music from the pin - the Blue Babies are alive! And what..s about “crisis"? Ska has always been the antidote! At the beginning of the 60s as the music of the unemployed Rude Boys in Jamaica, at the early 80s as a force against Thatcherism in England, a little later as a weapon against the economic downturn in Germany. Currently Ska goes through an unprecedented revival. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
