Tim Kamrad has reinvented himself and is now KAMRAD. He achieved his breakthrough with his pop anthem “I Believe”, which stormed the European charts upon its release back in spring 2022. 
 
The track sparked a viral wildfire with several thousand TikTok creations, millions of video views and over 50 million streams (and counting!) on digital music platforms. “I Believe” was one of the most played songs on the radio all across Europe for months and celebrated phenomenal airplay chart successes, including #1 in Germany, #1 in Poland and top 10 placements in Austria and Switzerland as well as countless other countries.
The gifted artist is not only a talented multi-instrumentalist and stylistically confident songwriter, but also a lively and entertaining live act. He laughs, jokes and interacts with the audience from the moment he sets foot on stage. For Kamrad, performing on stage is the main reason he began making music in the first place. He left no doubt about this as support act for German pop singer Nico Santos and at countless open-air concerts and festivals.
From 2023, KAMRAD will headline his own European club tour with his band. He will reap the rewards of all his hard work, courage and success with “I Believe”.
On 4 October 2023, KAMRAD will of course also stop off at the opderschmelz cultural centre in Dudelange to put on an unforgettable, high-powered and energetic show for all his fans.

Boubacar Traoré had the whole of Mali dancing to his music when the Rolling Stones were still performing as a cover band. The exceptional musician achieved success with hits like “Mali Twist” and “Kar Kar Madison” long before Keith Richards knew the riff for “Satisfaction”.
But there is also one thing in common with Mick &amp; Co.: Boubacar Traoré, nicknamed Kar Kar, is tireless on tour. A phenomenal live musician who still knows how to inspire young audiences. Since the turn of the millennium at the latest, he has been celebrated as one of the great fathers and ambassadors of modern Mandingo music. He combines characteristic playing techniques and ideas from West Africa with the philosophy of the blues from the south of the USA. It is his experiences as a bricklayer and farmer, his hardships as a single father and the grief for his late wife that make his songs so believable and fragile. Now Kar Kar is coming to Europe with his current programme and of course to Dudelange. The blues musician from Kayes in western Mali will be accompanied by two other musicians – calabash player Babah Konéhat and harmonica player Vincent Bucher.
Between melancholy and confidence and driven by the unstoppable desire to make music, the trio around Kar Kar will ensure an unforgettable evening.

Gerald Clayton Trio

An electrifying Italian folk-rock evening at the opderschmelz cultural centre with the great bands Nidi d'Arac and Modena City Ramblers.
Nidi d'Arac is a pure dance and sound delight. It is an all-night party that resonates with its fans on a spiritual and emotional level. Similar to a rave event, it combines the melodies of Italian pizzica folk dance with the captivating rhythms of an urban environment. A significant contribution to this unique experience comes from the collaboration with DJ "Sound-Manipulator,", who skilfully knows how to fuse traditional influences with contemporary club culture. On top of that, Alessandro Coppola, Lecce's charismatic lead singer, contributes his work which consistently reflects his love for Mediterranean culture.
The Modena City Ramblers were founded in 1991 as an Irish folk group and are bound together by their love of music and the traditions of the Emerald Isle. For over 30 years, they have enjoyed success with their albums and live tours in Italy, Europe and also in Dudelange, where they were already guests at the Zeltik Festival in 2020. In 2022, the Modena City Ramblers started their tour to present "Appunti Partigiani". An album released in 2005 that achieved gold status and set a milestone in their career. As part of the current anniversary tour, they will be back in the south of Luxembourg to perform at opderschmelz cultural centre. This time to present their new album "Altomare".
With Nidi d'Arac and Modena City Ramblers, we can look forward to two exceptional bands that will offer the entire audience a perfect musical experience with their incomparable enthusiasm and dedication to music.

The Horse Blinders – CD Release 

CrossBorder Blues are three extraordinary artists on the road. Triumphant, curious and legendary in their constellation.
CrossBorder Blues, with the album of the same name, can and must be called a supergroup. Three award-winning artists with diverse backgrounds explore new sound structures and enrich the spectrum of acoustic blues. Free of clichés, precise and playful virtuosos. A clash of superlatives without trying to be loud.
Harrison Kennedy with his practised voice, banjo and guitar. The main characteristic of his work is eclecticism with the particularity of linking tradition and modernity. At his side Jean-Jacques Milteau, a master of the harmonica. He is considered one of the most blues-savvy artists in France and has been awarded two “Victoires de la Musique”. The third in the group is Vincent Segal on cello. He has been awarded an impressive number of “Victoires de la Musique” and skilfully switches back and forth between musical genres. He has played with countless greats from the music scene such as Chuck Brown, Ibrahim Maalouf or Sting, among others.
A European and musical megaproject that adds new facets to the blues without ever falling prey to nostalgia.

Acclaimed as an "exceptional pianist" by Downbeat Magazine, Michel Reis has rapidly emerged as a globally renowned artist in recent years. Now he presents his new album "For a Better Tomorrow" at the opderschmelz cultural centre.
Michel Reis has performed at some of the world's most famous venues and festivals, including the Blue Note Jazz Club, Dizzy’s Club Coca-Cola at Jazz at Lincoln Center and the Olympia in Paris. In 2005, he achieved the finals of the inaugural Moscow Competition for Jazz Musicians, followed by a second prize win at the Montreux Jazz Solo Piano Competition a year later.
Highly regarded Scottish author and jazz connoisseur Brian Morton holds Michel Reis in high esteem. Morton particularly highlights the enchanting opening of "Bound Together" and the mesmerizing title track "For a Better Tomorrow," as they embody the natural essence of Reis' playing. Even during his most virtuosic moments, Reis never conveys strain or forcefulness, as his intention is not to impress but to enhance the musical experience. This sentiment is particularly evident in more delicate compositions such as "Coal Harbour," "Aquene," and "Paper Feathers."
An album to fall in love with, peaceful and hopeful, capturing the quiet world view of Michel Reis. The audience can look forward to an intimate and special piano recital.
