36 years on tour worldwide, that's almost 5000 concerts. The BBs love their music and play the blues so skillfully that even the Americans now take their hats off to this German band. With their mixture of "Rhythm & Blues" and a touch of "Sixty Soul" they have gained a fan base around the globe.
The band has received countless awards such as the "German Blues Award" and the title "Best Blues Band in Europe" from French music editors, and their CD "Unique Taste" was awarded the German Record Critics' Prize. In 2021, the band was "Blues Band of the Year" on the British station Blues Lounge Radio. 2023 saw the release of the new album "Lonesome In The Moonlight". A contemporary album that places itself on the top shelf of international R&B releases. 2026 sees the release of the 18th album. This band is a unique success story.
B.B. & The Blues Shacks stand for great live performances and have also established themselves as a top act overseas. They have played in Dubai, at the Doheny Festival in Los Angeles and at the Byron Bay Festival in Australia with artists such as Bob Dylan, B.B. King and Elvis Costello in front of tens of thousands of people.
Frontman Michael Arlt (vocals and harp) has long been in the premier league of European blues and soul singers. He is also a unique entertainer. His brother Andreas Arlt is an elegant stylist and is now regarded as a world-class guitarist. With Fabian Fritz on piano and organ, the band was able to engage another genius for the independent sound. Henning Hauerken (double bass and electric bass) and Andre Werkmeister (drums) provide the unique drive and groove that you take home with you from the concert.
