SUFI DUB BROTHERS (Hamburg, Fun in the Church)
Mittwoch, 10. September 2025
Bumann & Sohn OPEN AIR (bei Unwetter im Club)
Einlass 19:00, Beginn 20:00

They are back: During the last few years, Ashraf Sharif Khan & Viktor Marek have been able to build a valid career, based on the sheer strength of their incredible and incredibly entertaining live sets. And this despite the fact that their debut album "Sufi Dub Brothers" came out in August 2020 after almost ten years in the making in the midst of all the COVID turmoil. Long gone are the suspicions of their approach of combining sitar and samplers as esoteric. Using their karate chops (an earthy sense of humor and outstanding musical qualities), the stellar duo of hearts from the Waterkant was easily able to dismiss these accusations, helping to establish their home of Hamburg as a new center of European Indo-Pop fusion. 

After fully skipping their extensive artist names in favor of the Sufi Dub moniker, the time is ripe for "The Return of The Sufi Dub Brothers": With a title equally giving a nod to the late Lee Scratch Perry and oblivious superhero franchises, this new offering be released by Fun In The Church on September 5, 2025. Please find some first snippets below already. Ashraf and Viktor are available to play festival shows before that, and will be on their first extensive tour of Germany and Europe in September and October of the coming year.
