Gotthard - "BANG!" Video
WORLD CUP "BANG!"
Let the games begin: With "BANG!", the second single from the eponymous #1 album, the platinum boys from GOTTHARD provide a proper load of rock 'n' roll this soccer summer ...
THE MIRACLE OF TESSIN
The album already dominates the Swiss charts' Top 5 for the fifth week and the new single "BANG!" even ups the ante: Featuring original material from the 50ies, GOTTHARD have created their own version of "The Wonder of Bern" with their clip for the new release. The entertaining and infectious interpretation was shot at the Lugano stadium with the help of the Swiss soccer heroes (and fans and friends of the band) Pascal "Zubi" Zuberbühler, Kubilay "Kubi" Türkyilmaz, and Antonio Esposito, of course featuring Leo, Nic, Freddy, Hena, and Marc as well -- in very special outfits ... expect to be surprised! For the time being, Pascal "Zubi" Zuberbühler reveals the following: "When Marc Lynn called me and asked if I wanted to be in the video for "BANG!", I said yes straight away! I've often been to concerts and parties of the boys and it was always very cool. GOTTHARD simply are "geili Sieche" (cool dudes) and the shoot was extremely fun -- I haven't laughed so hard in a long time!" -- So, get into party mood, when the band, in anticipation of the World Cup and full of pride for their Swiss National Team, dedicates its new single to this soccer summer while "BANG!" lines up the shot for World Soccer Party Anthem No.1!
ROCK GOES JAPAN
After the sensational kick-off at the "Under the Bridge" festival, GOTTHARD provide the necessary „BANG!" live at the festivals in Murten and Hinwil in June as well. End of September, the amps will be loaded into the plane to perform the newly confirmed dates in the land of the rising sun, and from October 15 on, the arenas in Europe will set alight as well. "BANG!" tickets are available at box offices everywhere.
