About Me
..
Back to the Sixties!
Das ist das Motto, unter dem die Auftritte und Gastspiele von der JEOPARDS
stehen!
Back to the Sixties … das sind Gibsongitarren,
Lederjacken, Blue Jeans und Vox-Verstärker. Und natürlich die großen Hits
einer unvergessenen Epoche:
Johnny B. Goode, Poison Ivy, Ain’t She Sweet, Hippy Hippy Shake …
Dazu schreiben die Jeopards auch mehrere eigene Songs, die sich von „Sixties Hits“ nicht unterscheiden
Die Band ist im April 2001 in Hamburg gegründed.
2002 -erster Fernsehauftritt: beim VIVA-Heinz Talentshow.
Dezember 2006: die Jeopards schaffen es zum Coke „Bands On Tour“.
Im Januar 2007 war die Band wieder beim Fernsehen- als Gast von Connie Andre’s Musicbox (TIDE TV), dann beim H1 (Hannover)…
Mai 2007: In Zusammenarbeit von Dennis Rux (Produzent und Gitarrist von TRASHMONKEYS) nehmen die Jeopards 4 neue Songs auf,- YOU MAKE ME GLAD, EVIL WOMAN, I NEED HER und POISON IVY.
Ob auf Großveranstaltungen, Bikerpartys, Oldtimertreffen oder in kleiner
Club-Atmosphäre …sie konnten auf Hunderten von Live-Auftritten
bundesweit bisher jedes Publikum Ãœberzeugen! Da stimmt jeder Ton und die
Spielfreude der drei jungen sympathischen Hamburgerer (Max, Andrè und Denis) begeistert die Zuhörer
vom ersten Akkord an!

THE JEOPARDS LINER NOTES
The threesome - Max, André and Denis - write, play and sing a powerhouse music filled with zest and uninhibited good humour that make listening a sensation-filled joy.
MAX - (lead-singer plus bass guitar+Hammond organ (sometimes).
is the heart-throb of the group, a fact which surprizes him and them. Rumours say that he comes from a Gypsy village, so such an environment was very rich on musical and artistical traditions. His lyrics are very simple, to the point of being basic. They mask the complex characters that evolves them. He knows his own limits though he doesn't always accept them.
ANDRÉ - (lead guitars, vocals) new face in/of the band! Profitably for a beat group's musician, he is heavily influenced by Delta Blues, Oldskool Soul/Funk as well as Traditional Jazz music.
DENIS - is at his happiest when he is drumming. He says little, but drums a great deal. Rumours say that to get his first drum set he had to sell his cherished good old Harley Davidson and even bid farewell to his motorcycle gang!
The first success came in 2002 (actually pre-Jeopards era), when the band was invited to a talent casting show, organized by VIVA (a German music TV) and Heinz. As a consequence, the band gained a short live TV appearance on VIVA. In late 2006 The Jeopards participated on "Coke Bands On Tour".
In May 2007 the band went to Hörwerk Studio, which is owned by Dennis Rux, the guitarist and producer of a famous band TRASHMONKEYS. He recorded The Jeopards with his brilliant vintage 60s sound. Four songs were recorded in three days - YOU MAKE ME GLAD, EVIL WOMAN, I NEED HER and POISON IVY, a Leiber-Stoller song.
Starting from the early 2007 the band were regularily featured at many German regional TV channels (Tide, H1 etc) performing their best hits. At the moment the band keeps on gigging at venues around Germany and abroad, exploiting their permanently refreshing concert program. Yet the band always keep on creating and recording their new material to keep their fans satisfied.
