Supports: Lacasa del Cid, Eminence of Darkness; Venue: The Cave, Frankfurt(Germany)
By: Nina Mende

  Tonight I was at the Cave in Frankfurt to see Staubkind. But they were not the
  only ones to play on this Monday night, there were also two other bands along.
  First of the night and proudly announced by Louis (singer of Staubkind) was
  Lacasa del Cid from Berlin, not a big difference to the Johnny Cash music that
  the DJ played before the bands started. Lacasa del Cid made the small club even
  smaller and more familiar with their music and gave us the feeling of being
  in one of these late night pubs watching an acoustic set. I was fascinated by
  Serena’s (a female singer) and Cid’s voices and totally taken away.
  But unfortunately it was all over about half an hour later.

 
 
    Up next for the night was Eminence of Darkness, also from Germany. Waverock
  describes their style of music quite well. With a female vocalist/bass player/guitar
  player (all in one), a guitar player (the bass player Juliane was taking over
  his guitar for a song while he was just singing) and a keyboarder who also left
  his keyboard for a song to sing only, this band did not only proof that they
  are talented musicians but also rocked the audience that was quite big for a
  Monday night.

 
 
    The last band for the night was Staubkind from Berlin. They sing in German
  and their songs are all very touchy and go straight to your mind and heart.
  Playing many songs of their new album “Zu Weit” they kept the audience’s
  full attention for 1 ½ hours. The little club added a very familiar atmosphere
  to it all, so that you did not feel like being at a concert and just watching
  a band perform at all, more like being a part of this event. For one song Cid
  from Lacasa del Cid was joining Louis singing, and for one of the encore songs
  Serena joined.
  All three bands managed the technical difficulties very well and seemed to be
  very close to their audience. It was an amazing evening and I hope they will
  all be back soon.
