thE DorKs were founded in 2007 and have existed in their current line-up since 2014. In the first few years they played a crisp mix of pop, rock and punk, which was mainly due to the drummer at the time.
After his departure, the sound was redefined. The new creation was called Nasty Folk!
Nasty Folk combines the dirt and blues of Tom Waits, the extreme and brutal of Primus and the harmonies
of a John Frusciante to a unique sound. Of course, other influences from the last 60 years of music history can also be heard.
After museum-space-indie-pop-punk-rock and underground rock'n'roll thE DorKs describe their current sound as Nasty Folk, that of so great musicians like Tom Waits, Primus, Kaizers Orchestra and John Frusciante! The latest songs tell the almost unbelievable story of an unfortunate love triangle, which began a little over a hundred years ago on board the MS LUCY MARIE _cc781905-5cde-3194-bb3b -136bad5cf58d_plays, culminating in the tragic sinking of the ship! The unique voice of singer Sir Webbster and his double bass in interplay with the beats of Count Rufus and the sounds of the guitar tingelt-5d-836_bad5cf-136 Clerkman make the tragedy come true and make every DorKs concert an unforgettable experience!
As support we can welcome the musically very talented and interesting Crazy Carrot.
