A lot has happened since the young Germans Giant Rooks managed to make an elegant version of Suzanne Vega’s classic Tom’s Diner go viral. Well, it was only 2019 but, in these times, that already seems like an eternity. The fact is that, without really knowing why, the cover reached millions of views on Spotify and TikTok, and launched these friendly Germans to fame with the appearance of a 90s boy band but a bright indie pop style very suitable for everyone. the publics.

The band founded in 2014 by two cousins, Frederik Rabe and Finn Schwieters, in the German town of Hamm will spend this Three Kings Night at the Apolo hall in Barcelona in what will be their second concert in the Catalan capital after the one in 2022 in Razzmatazz. They present their third album LP How have you been? , which they will release in February, and which includes signature singles – already on the market – such as Somebody like you, in which they seek to escape the stereotype of a viral band through songs that remain fresh but exude solidity.

As part of the tour, the Germans will stop this Saturday at the La Paqui hall in Madrid.
