Markus Jehle

In 2003 he played his first concert with us in Peralta, Spain, his last on December 3rd in Leszno, Poland. We would like to thank him for the great time together and wish him all the best for the future!

Blues Garage shows cancelled

With a heavy heart we have to cancel our two concerts in the Blues Garage Isernhagen on August 18th and 19th due to health reasons. Our singer Yogi Lang has been struggling with back problems for some time, but now it has gotten so bad that performances in August cannot be possible. We wish him all the best and a speedy recovery!

New bass player

We are very happy to officially introduce bass player Markus Grützner from Munich as a new member of RPWL! Markus brings a wealth of experience with many bands, including the spectacular "7for4". The rehearsals so far have been great and we're really looking forward to the Artrock Festival on April 10th in Reichenbach. Welcome, Markus! Since 2018, the bass player position has not been permanently occupied. At this point we would like to say a big thank you to Sebastian Harnack, Frank Thumbach and Jürgen Richter, who have been our musical guests on the bass for the last few years. Especially Sebastian Harnack has been on tour with us for many, many shows and will keep a place in our hearts. Thank you guys!

Hannover shows postponed

The latest Covid-19 measures and the so-called "Lockdown Light" in Germany also affect our three concerts in Hanover at the end of November. In consultation with the Blues-Garage, we will postpone this to March 16, 17 and 18, 2021. We hope for your understanding and look forward to finally being able to celebrate our 20th anniversary with you in March. Tickets already purchased remain valid. More information at https://bluesgarage.de/programm.

November shows

The cancellation of the November European tour on the occasion of our 20th anniversary of the first album "God Has Failed" was a hard blow. But too many different regulations in Germany alone and in other European countries unfortunately made this tour impossible. But now comes the good news: the Blues Garage in Hanover-Isernhagen revealed itself to be a "savior in need" and now we can celebrate our anniversary: on 3 days in a row we will present 3 different programs: 25 NOV 20 "God Has Failed" & "Pink Floyd-Set" 26 NOV 20 "God Has Failed" & "Tales From Outer Space" 27 NOV 20 "God Has Failed" & "Best of RPWL" Can't wait to be back on stage!

November tour cancelled

With a heavy heart we unfortunately have to cancel our planned November tour due to the current Covid 19 situation. Until the very end, we hoped for more relaxation for live concerts, but unfortunately it doesn't look like it - on the contrary: the increasing number of cases and the different situations in the different countries and federal states make it impossible to formulate a hygiene concept so that we can organize these concerts can play. Since we had planned to celebrate the 20th anniversary of our first album, we will not be able to postpone this tour, but unfortunately have to cancel it completely. We will use the time to write new songs and to be live with a new album as soon as possible. All the best for you and stay healthy!

Happy holidays!

A very eventful year with countless highlights is coming to an end and we would like to thank you for your loyalty and support! We wish you happy holidays and hope to see you at the Midsummer Progfest in the Netherlands or in November at the latest, when we will celebrate the 20th anniversary of our first album "God Has Failed"!
