21.12.15
Dear friends of The Peejays!
It's been a fantastic year (bandwise that is - not talking of the wars in the world).
We started off on our unplugged project due to Matze's absence at the beginning of the year and we wrote so many songs in that period that it is in fact an album of its own, which we might bring out somehow soon. We had some great gigs, one is completely on film (we might also release this or parts of it). We supported our friends The Vals on their Germany Tour, which was great too.
Then we were a five piece band again and Paul wrote some great SAP-related parodies of well known classics that got us some gigs at SAP. And finally we were invited to play the SAP X-Mas-Party in Rot, which was a great gig to end the year.
And we have finally got some new studio recordings finished and are proud to announce the "Nearly Almost Famous"-EP that will be released on 7" vinyl al well as a digital EP in 2016!
We wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year and leave you with a song we played for the first time at the SAP X-Mas-Party. Sadly Ben was not captured in the main angle, but we found ways of getting him into the video thanks to some footage from the side of the stage. Enjoy!
08.10.15 SAP-week 3: At last with full line-up again! It's been three fantastic gigs, each one different, each one cool!
03.10.15 SAP-week 2: As a four-piece as Ben is in London with Jan, Matze, Paul and Peter
25.09.15 SAP-week 1: Unplugged with Ben, Paul und Jan
09.08.15 Wow! Once things get started... We'll be playing on October 2nd and 6th at - guess where - SAP in Rot!
03.08.15 SAP seems to really dig us - we'll be in Walldorf on September 24th, but unplugged again as Matze and Peter will be abroad.
24.06.15 To play unplugged was fun, but we really enjoyed playing with full line-up again!
09.06.15 We are happy to announce were are playing SAP Parners Forum in Rot again on June 23rd!
