Marama - A thunderstorm
Thom der Dudler has been playing his various bagpipes tirelessly for years. His fingers dance across the flute, his feet stomp holes in the ground and his passion for music flows into the melodies he composes himself. Together with the three percussionists Philipp Ryf, Frederik Rechsteiner and Mirjam Gosteli, the result is Marama. A band that captivates with virtuoso bagpipe sounds and driving drum rhythms.
"Playing with Marama is like letting out all your fire at once. Full throttle and absolutely in the present. Beyond the pain in your arms, just further and further, faster, wilder...
Feeling the bass with your whole body, the melodies that drive... Plus the people dancing like mad... It's pure happiness! Wild, untameable, loud. It's like running screaming into freedom. Or into a thunderstorm. Thank you music. Without you, life would be like sour chocolate."
