Hauke von Horeis not only describes himself as a street-smart Hamburg bon vivant with the charm of a smoky neighbourhood pub - no, he is also a formative figure in Hamburg's cultural scene in all its facets. As the figurehead of the Astrastube and the Hebebühne Hamburg, he characterises the city's club life. In his podcast ‘Astra Colada’, Hamburg's creative artists, from Johannes Oerding to Finna, have been giving each other a hand for years. Because there are only 24 hours in a day, he spends the rest of his time singing on the country's stages. After his main band Odeville announced a break after 16 years, there was finally room for the solo career he had been striving for: ‘Hauke von Horeis & Die Yoko Udos’. He himself describes his style as anti-fascist swing punk and draws wildly on the sounds of the 20s, 30s and old rhythm & blues classics, which he illustrates in a sometimes provocative, humorous and loving way with controversial topics such as everyday racism, mansplaining and sexism. Hauke von Horeis wears one half of his heart on his sleeve and searches in vain for the other half in the neighbourhood where he lost it: St. Pauli.
