Woog Riots

Woog Riots are the charismatic mastermind couple Silvana Battisti and Marc Herbert, purveyors of more than seven albums, Woog Riots unfold their very own idea of pop in front of us. 808 Drum Sounds, synthesizers, minimalist rhythm guitars and Silvana's penchant for obscure instruments form the sonic basis of the songs. Additionally they sing as relaxed as if they are sitting with the listeners in their livingroom.

In August 2024 a new Woog Riots album will be released: Collectors of Pop. Collectors of Pop is like a pink piece of cake that you've always wanted to bite into. Featuring twelve songs as colourful as a Wes Anderson film, as snappy as those slogans at a Muhammad Ali press conference and with melodies soft as a kiss from Princess Di.

"With the image of a hated job that you want to escape by signing on to ariverboat, we are following in the tradition of another greatriverboat song: 'Proud Mary' by the US rock band Creedence ClearwaterRevival," the self-proclaimed "collectors of pop" Silvana and Marc tell us. But why riverboats? Woog Riots wrote the song while Silvana herself was working on ariverboat. The experiment ended after a year. What remains is thesong "Riverboat to Amsterdam", which was of courseperformed and tested live for the first time in the board bar on a trip from Cologne to Amsterdam.
