With relaxed lyrics and a loose tongue, Münster native Johnny Ketzel makes American country music his own, opening up new horizons for it in colloquial German. Johnny Ketzel sings his verses somewhere between youthful brashness and the mellow wisdom of old age, like someone who has been shaken by many things but can now shake nothing. A homeopathic storyteller with fresh soul bandages and semantic plasters that are currently unique in the scene. We've all been there before. Johnny Ketzel offers comfort with a wink. Loser poetry with an indomitable winner's mentality. Carried by the virtuoso playing of his guitarist Siggi Mertens, who skillfully cushions all the spontaneous, interactive antics, Johnny Ketzel presents his unconventional stage program with self-irony and a wink, transforming the region's stages into a blazing ring of fire with wonderful regularity. This is country music from another planet.
