Thanks to our Japanese friends we had a great time playing some shows in beautiful Japan .
Days were packed as well as the highways and the dancefloors and we’re already pretty sure to return someday.

Happy new year, dear friends and loyalists!
Stay sane, stay healthy and stay tuned as it seems this year might be a furtile one – refering to new songs and recordings of course.

“This is real music as it was meant to be, abundant in melodies, harmonies and jangly guitars and even a bit of rocking piano.”

Icecreamman.blogspot

“…denn wenn man sich mit Ohrwürmern so großzügig zeigt, so verschwenderisch und nonchalant mit Harmonien und Melodien umgeht, eine Perle an die nächste reiht, wurde wirklich alles richtig gemacht.”

Ox-Fanzine

“Their hybrid sound of The Remains, early Beatles and British Beat made quite an impression on the crowd. They loved them.”
The New Untouchables

“Laut und energisch drückt der virtuos inszenierte Rock-Sound aus den Boxen und trifft von jetzt auf gleich ins Schwarze.”
Nürnberger Nachrichten

“Do yourself a favor and get a copy of ‘With A Carrot And A Stick’, released on CD and LP. This record is brilliant from start to finish.”
Ratboy '69, A Rock And Roll Blog

ABOUT

Beat, Beat, Beat!

Suddenly there was this indistinct notion that all important melodies have nearly been used up. Calls grew louder predicting the last curtain to fall for rock’n’roll. Suddenly there was a feeling that pop music is too focused on being reinvented instead of getting back to its magical basics. We believed that nothing already seen could ever blow our minds again.

And then suddenly this new band turns round the corner showing us how it’s done. Rubbing our noses or rather ears in this big fallacy. The Mergers! The definite 60’s beat sensation with their fabulous 2nd album ‘With A Carrot And A Stick’. Listening for seconds will make you see that there is no need having anything but two guitars, a bass, a drum kit and a proper haircut to drink tea with the Olympian Gods.

“Beat with a capital B”
This 4-piece band – Jerry Coma being the charismatic frontman – combines elaborate songwriting and harmonies with the energy of a deafening jumbo jet. With the equipment and the looks of the early 60’s they are brewing a highly authentic sound set on fire by its straight realization. The Mergers perform their cleverly arranged and simply incredible songs with a frenzied power that will knock your socks off!!!
