Biography

Founded in summer 2013, Travelin Jack have developed into one of Germany’s most unusual rock acts over the past four years, establishing their inimitable style, which is tailored to the vocals of Alia Spaceface, with two successful tours and shows at important festivals beyond the German borders. The general flair of Commencing Countdown may bring to mind great rock groups from the seventies, such as Thin Lizzy, Rush, Scorpions and Deep Purple, but the Berlin band’s compositions and the warm, analogue production of their new album are both contemporary and modern. Kraemer: “There’s nothing retro about our material, we simply prefer the sound of the era when this music was really wicked.” Mind you, only the riff-heavy ´Cold Blood` reminds of Travelin Jack´s debut album New World (2015), while ´Galactic Blue`, for example, goes one step further, heralding with its outstanding space echo parts a new penchant for experimentation. Just like the ballad ´What Have I Done`, which Travelin Jack had only prepared as a rudimentary basic skeleton in order to develop it to its full glory at the studio. Talking of which: Commencing Countdown was recorded by Richard Behrens and Mirko ´Godi` Hildmann at the Schaltraum Studio, an erstwhile broadcasting centre in the formerly East German part of Berlin, where the musicians found the perfect conditions to translate their artistic vision into reality.
