THE VON HERTZEN BROTHERS HEADING TO THE UK THIS FEBRUARY
The Von Hertzen Brothers are heading to the UK next month as they play Manchester and London, before they headline Planet Rock’s Winters End Festival on Saturday 4th February.
This unique Finnish collective have their own inimitable identity drawing on elements of rock, folk, progressive and pop.
Their 2022 album smashed the end of year round-ups with ‘Red Alert in the Blue Forest’ earning impressive ranks in both Classic Rock, Prog Magazine and Planet Rock Radio. Even Def Leppard’s Joe Elliott rated the album second only to Demi Lovato’s!
When we saw the band last year, we said of ‘Peace Patrol’, the final song of their set and ten minute epic album track; “What can I say? A ten minute epic that had me well and truly consumed by the music, it almost took me to a different place, it was sonic perfection. I was on my own with this glorious music washing over me in another dimension, something I’ve never experienced at a gig before – and no, I hadn’t taken anything, the music was just that good!”
Listen to Peace Patrol below:
The three brothers, Mikko, Kie and Jonne Von Hertzen plus keyboard player Robert Engstrand and drummer Sami Kuoppamaki will bring their myriad of sounds to the UK when they return for 3 shows in Feb 2023: Manchester, London and as a headliner at Planet Rock Winter’s End Festival in Wales.
Wed 1st February 2023 – MANCHESTER – Night & Day Café
Thu 2nd February 2023 – LONDON – The Garage (support from Marisa And The Moths)
Sat 4th February 2023 – PORTHCAWL – Planet Rock Winter’s End Festival
The VHB live experience has been described as mesmerising, magical and thought-provoking and is never less than compelling.
“We are thrilled to open the new year with a bang by coming over to the UK to headline Planet Rock’s awesome festival, Winter’s End. The Planet Rock audience has always been amazing and I’d say it feels like coming home when you come to play at one of their events. We didn’t get a chance to play in Manchester last May and we’ve always had a great time playing in London, so we added those extra dates to our forthcoming trip. We are looking forward to playing our first gig in the Kingdom. So far, we’ve only played in the Queendom. Hopefully all our fans can make it to (at least) one of these three shows!” says Mikko Von Hertzen.
