Jungle by Night
Jungle by Night returns to their 'home' with a new live show. They've played Paradiso countless times, and this marks a new chapter for the Amsterdam band, offering a first glimpse of what's to come: new music, a refreshed lineup and more party. With analogue dance music, nu-disco, krautrock, 70s funk and 80s electro, they invite you once again to travel along on danceable grooves and take a deep dive into their musical landscape: a colourful world of synthesizers, brass, drums, bass, guitar and percussion.
After many albums, EPs and hundreds of shows, the band has grown over the past 16 years into a firm crowd favourite at festivals across Europe, and this year they're back on the big festival stages too, including Best Kept Secret and Wilde Weide. With a shift towards a more electronic sound, the band has taken their grooves to a new level. By now, audiences know that a Jungle by Night show is a collective explosion of rhythm, energy and movement; a guaranteed party where standing still is no longer an option.
In 2027 Jungle by Night releases their next full length album, 'Bar Dancing'. The album builds on influences from '80s pop, krautrock, and Neue Deutsche Welle. Think of the playfulness of Talking Heads, the dub influences of UB40, the electronic layers of Air, and the tight "computer love" of Kraftwerk.
Band member Tienson explains: "For the first time, we are literally giving a voice to our thoughts. It makes the music more personal, more direct, and more layered, without losing that signature, uplifting Jungle groove."
