As you’ve likely already heard, André will be out for an extended period due to illness. We wish him a full and speedy recovery so that he can hopefully be back on stage with us soon! For our upcoming concerts, Elliott Berlin will be stepping in again; he was already scheduled for the major festivals anyway, knows all the songs, and fits in perfectly with our crew. For the podcast, however, this marks the end of its current format after 6 years and 210 episodes, as it wouldn’t make much sense for Sven to continue a "band podcast" on his own. But don’t worry—things are still moving forward! Together with Chris Pohl (Blutengel, She Hates Emotions, Terminal Choice, Miss Construction), Sven is launching a new podcast: "Das bleibt jetzt so" (It stays as it is now). The concept is similar to before: Insights into the activities of both musicians. The chance to ask questions. A few regular segments. Most importantly ... no scripts, everything is spontaneous ... just as the name suggests. Of course, we’d be thrilled if you helped shape this new podcast as creatively as you have in the past—after all, we’re not just doing this for our own amusement! ;-) You can still use the old email address for now, but moving forward, the official new podcast email is: mail@dasbleibtjetztso.com You can find the new podcast on all major platforms. The direct feed is available at dasbleibtjetztso.com and solarfake.com/en/pages/podcast. We are sticking to our bi-weekly schedule and will continue to release new episodes on Friday mornings. Here's a short video from Sven & Chris:Enjoy!
