NITRO 17 IS GOING OUT OF BUISENESS-STILL 3 GOODBYE SHOWS WILL TAKE PLACE IN FEB.2010..SEE YOU ALL THERE !scandals, sex -drugs - rock..n..roll! Nitro 17 – Rock’n Roll Reloaded Nitro 17 might not be a household name yet, but people in the industry sure know the line-up and crowds in their hometown at the last concert had one of Berlins hottest clubs close down on a normally rather quiet Friday night, leaving fans standing outside. The four musicians who certainly stand their grounds founded the band in 2004: Singer Jo Fischer (former singer of: Desperado Five) is expressing an astonishing variety and depth in his voice that is easily at home in deep ballades, roaring rock songs, or high pitched Ska, sending his fans home with goosebumps all over. Guitar hero Tex Morton, for more than 20 years in the business (e.g. with Mad Sin, Sunny Domestozs) knows all e-guitar-brands of the last 65 years with their first name and plays some licks that let not only the female fans melt down. Bass-player Ralph Summers tours regular with (Spo-dee-o-dee) through Europe and the USA brings a really unusual note to the already extraordinary line-up. While drummer Stephane Doucerainz who beat the Skins for Nikki Sudden (till he passed away) and a pro-musician for more than 10 years made his way from Paris to join the new formation. Within the first half year of the bands existence, the boys played already 20 shows in front of enthusiastic crowds which led to a record deal for their first mini album produced by the great Moses Schneider (Beatsteaks, Tocotronic, Mediengruppe Telekommander) Released in 2007 the album set the blogs abuzz, with raving reviews about a unique new style in music history, and the album was sold out in between 6 month. Meanwhile the band continued touring Germany, Switzerland and Belgium, and even opened up for the Leningrad Cowboys. By the end of 2007, the band found itself in the studio again, recording a new record for Drunkabily Rec. that will be released in September 2008 and distributed in Germany, and the UK by Plastic Head. The new songs have the presence of many musical influences, with a progressive edge that could very well define a new standard in the industry we like to call: „Rock-n Roll reloaded“. The band is due to enter the West Coast this fall.
