BACK:N:BLACK (CH)
The Girls Who Play AC/DC
Territory: Denmark, Sweden and Norway
"We just bring our love for AC/DC to the stage, give the songs the musical respect they deserve—and put on a show we’d like to see. We don’t pretend to be AC/DC, and our fans appreciate that."
Bursting onto the scene in 2010, these five talented and beautiful young musicians are rapidly taking the AC/DC fan-world by storm.
BACK:N:BLACK is unlike other tribute bands. Their die-hard passion to show their love for AC/DC’s music as fans, while never losing sight of their own identity has attracted the attentions of AC/DC itself–and a wildly supportive worldwide fan base. Their outstanding musicianship, wild stage show and heart-felt crowd connections are at stadium level. Based in Switzerland, they have rocked festivals in Belgium, Czechia, England, France, Germany, Italy, Liechtenstein, Netherlands, Norway, Scotland, Slovakia, Switzerland, and soon the USA. Shows cover AC/DC’s career, from hits like Thunderstruck, Hells Bells, and Highway to Hell, to fan favorites like Down Payment Blues and Shake a Leg.If you don't already know them, make no mistake: BACK:N:BLACK is not just another girl band, or another AC/DC tribute. They are not only great musicians, they are mega-charismatic on stage. Because of this, they have a very strong fan base for their own identity. Fans see them as an "originals band"--that just plays songs people know. They work extremely well with big crowds, as metal as they come. And don't be fooled: They are great looking, but those who blow them off as Barbie Dolls always wind up eating their words!
