About the Artist

Subway to Sally, hailing from Potsdam, have been a formidable force in the German music scene since their formation in 1990. Blending medieval influences with modern metal and rock, they've carved out a unique niche that is both timeless and fiercely contemporary. Their early work was characterised by a more folk-metal sound, often sung in English, but they soon transitioned to German lyrics, a move that allowed their poetic storytelling and intricate narratives to truly shine.

Led by the charismatic Simon „Mr. T.“ Thiede (vocals and guitar), the band's lineup, which also features the distinctive talents of Ingo Hampf (guitar), Michael „Bodenski“ Richter (bass and vocals), Andreas „Sina“ Schirra (bagpipes and vocals), and Jens „Wurmi“ Strehle (drums), has remained remarkably stable, fostering a deep musical connection and a powerful stage chemistry. Over the years, they have released a string of critically acclaimed albums, including "Morden im Norden", "Hey!", and "Blut, Schweiß und Zorn", each showcasing their evolution and unwavering commitment to their artistic vision. Their live performances are renowned for their intensity, visual flair, and the profound connection they forge with their audience, making them one of the most exciting live acts in Germany.
