The Australian band The Histrionics refer to themselves as a “Concept-Art-(Heritage)-Rock-Cover-Band”. Their music combines attributes of pop culture with topics of art discourse. Famous rock and pop classics from AC/DC to Pink Floyd are given new texts, meaning that each song is placed in a new context within the framework of the art world and its history, theory, controversy or circulating rumours.

After their celebrated debut album Never Mind the Pollocks, with which The Histrionics toured Germany, Austria, Holland and Luxembourg during 2003, the band is now presenting its second album Museum Fatigu.

Thanks are due to the Senate Administration for Science, Research and Culture for its generous support.

The concert is in the Casino on the ground floor at Bethanien and begins at 10 p.m. (doors open 9 p.m.) on 10th September. Entrance is free of charge.
