If, like me, you missed their appearance at the Rockpalast here last year, no problem! – Lebanese Indie-rockers Who Killed Bruce Lee are back at Bonn Harmonie next week (6 December) with what has been described as ‘A musical rollercoaster ride’ of styles.  Their Crossroads appearance was highly rated, but don’t just take my word for it – check out their set on the video below.   Oh, and if you need another reason to head down to Endenich on Wednesday, support for the evening will be Toys 2Masters winners Letlowe (formerly Millennia)  Details and Tickets HERE

“Really, there are no boundaries with this. 

It’s Art and you just make the music that feels good and feels right”

In my previous interview with Samantha Fish she indicated an interest in trying out different musical styles.  In 2017 she delivered on this in style with two excellent releases: ‘Chills and Fever’ and ‘Belle of the West’.  Each of them very different from her characteristic Blues Rock style and even, to some extent, different from each other.  At the time of writing the latter is sitting proudly on top of the Billboard Blues Chart in America so it’s a good time to find out what went into the making of these releases and how they will be presented onstage.  Samantha kindly gave 3songsbonn.com time for a short interview before her recent show at the Harmonie in Bonn

During an onstage  competition to win tickets for next year’s Harmonie show the question raised was, “How many times in succession has Julian Sas appeared at Bonn Harmonie?”  The winner’s answer was an incredible “sixteen”.  On this evening’s performance though no one would bet against celebrating a quarter century of shows here in 2026.  Heck, what price a half century of shows in 2051?  Three things in life seem to be certain: death, taxes, and Julian Sas in November.

Pop, Funk, Rock, Soul, with a bit of synthesizer… Bonn band Steal a Taxi claim to cover a lot of musical ground.  Far simpler to avoid all classifications except just one:  Good or Bad?  I’m sure George Orwell would have given them a definite “Double plus good” and, not surprisingly for a band who have appeared many times already on this site, I would very definitely agree.  Sunday saw the band play their last show of 2017 to a big and enthusiastic crowd at Bonn Harmonie.
