Alexander Hacke & Danielle de Picciotto Presents New Album Hitman's Heel

Alexander Hacke & Danielle de Picciotto combine experimental film with music drawn from gypsy rolls, Italo-Western piano tunes, loops and Autoharp picking. They have worked in Berlin since the eighties, and tour the world regularly. This album, Hitman's Heel, celebrates the restless life of a nomad, with a performance accompanied by de Picciotto's visuals.

Hacke/de Piccciotto have been a huge influence on Berlin's underground scene since the eighties and have been touring the world with their collaborations since 2000. Their new album celebrates this restless life of a nomad. As in their previous projects, new visuals by Danielle de Picciotto will accompany their performance, but this show's spotlight is on the music composed conjointly by the artist couple. Ballads, gypsy rolls, Italo Western piano tunes, and heavy guitar riffs entangled with sound loops and Autoharp picking could best be described as industrial blues transporting the audience into a world of the uncompromising explorer.
