A small bearded man enters the stage, tunes his guitar, takes a checking look through the room an starts his first song. The room goes quiet and is taken in awe. It sounds like a young Joe Cocker got the vocal range of Justin Timberlake and the guitar skills of Andy McKee. At the end, thundering applause and lots of fans more for Onk Lou. In the last year he produced his debut album under the guiding of producer Florian Richling, travelled to Cuba to shoot his musicvideo and has been tourmate of the Austrian band Granada. He crowded the band „The Bettter Life Inc.“ around him to give his songs more depth. And now he finished the album, a life packed in 16 songs, musically diverting between Frank Turner, Jason Mraz and Rag N Bone Man. A pinch Caribbean sounds, a Scandinavian influence and a lively breath of gypsy tunes, all carried by the voice of Onk Lou, forming the album called „Bogus“. Onk Lou: „With „Bogus“ i wanted to commemorate those things that just pop up in our faces that we cant quite deal with, yet the good thing about them is that these things can empower us to do great stuff! It may be being lied to, being tricked or being let down. The nice facet of all these is that they force us to do better,to grow: They push us to get together to fight the good fight, to go out there and live life and show them what we've got!“ Laughing has always been the medication of choice for Onk Lou, he likes to joke around and does not take things as serious as they might seem.
