Following the worldwide success of ELECTRIC CALLBOY‘s TEKKNO tour, the film TEKKNO: Live in Europe has been the absolute highlight in more than 100 German and Austrian cinemas already, and now it finally comes to the UK & Ireland! So if you didn’t make it to the tour yourself or would like to see the breathtaking spectacle again, now is your chance.

You can find information and tickets HERE.

The concert film was recorded at various national and international tour stops in Europe and has thus become a veritable best of the tour. The film joins a list of great successes of the band, from the No. #1 album in Germany, over 150,000 tickets sold worldwide, gold for the single ‘Hypa Hypa’ to over 10 million monthly streamers. The guys from Castrop-Rauxel are currently in the fast lane, and thus also in the cinemas.

ELECTRIC CALLBOY has experienced an extraordinary surge over the past three years, ascending to musical Olympus with hits like ‘Hypa Hypa’, ‘We Got The Moves’, ‘Pump It’, and ‘Spaceman’. Beyond the captivating songs, the spotlight shines on their self-deprecating humor, seamlessly bringing the party to concert stages through eye-catching costumes and wigs featured in videos that have garnered millions of views. It’s no surprise that their popularity has exploded to fill stadiums across the world!

As their popularity continues to soar, ELECTRIC CALLBOY now packs the biggest concert halls. The band drew in over 150,000 fans during their nearly sold-out world tour, and six of their eight 2024 shows have already sold out. In arenas, the elaborate production wows audiences with a spectacular light show and large video screens cleverly integrated into the stage design. These concerts are not just about wild partying and dancing; they also include moments of intimacy. During their pointed piano/saxophone/acoustic guitar interlude, the versatile musicians get cozy with a “Careless Whisper” ambiance, all delivered with a playful wink.

In short, the 2023 TEKKNO tour was an unforgettable experience! For those who missed it, there’s an opportunity to catch up or relive the magic, perhaps even in costume. The 21-song live spectacle is now hitting cinemas! The best recordings from major European cities, along with live scenes from the band’s “Escalation Fest” at the Rudolf Weber Arena in Oberhausen, will grace screens across the globe. This means that special guests Kalle Koschinsky, Finch, and Maria from Future Palace, known for features on the band’s studio recordings, can be experienced live.
 
And the most remarkable aspect: attending the movies does more than entertain! ELECTRIC CALLBOY is donating the proceeds to their EC Music School for socially disadvantaged children. This dedicated project aims to empower all children to learn an instrument, even if their parents can’t afford expensive music lessons. The first music school, equipped with 19 different instruments, has already been inaugurated by the band members in their hometown of Castrop-Rauxel with tremendous dedication, with many more to follow.
