Rebekka Salomea

SALOMEA isn’t just a band, but a chosen family, shaped by years of living and surviving together: love and breakups, loss and recovery, literal therapy, extensive touring, laughter and tears, communal silence when words aren’t enough. Together, they’ve climbed mountains, waded through rivers, created rituals, chopped barrels of wood, fed the piglets and lived life. From all of it, a sound emerged that’s like a home — built slightly off the beaten path.

German/US-American singer, composer, lyricist and instrumentalist Rebekka Salomea and her high profile band, Yannis Anft on keys, Oliver Lutz on bass and Leif Berger on drums, have built a strong following with their unique contemporary Jazz Electronica sound and spectacular live shows. 

They have opened for Brainfeeder artists Louis Cole & Genevieve Artadi, collaborated with artists like Salami Rose Joe Louis, Ray Lozano, Silvan Strauss, Gianni Brezzo, Stimming, NDR Big Band & Oscar #Worldpeace as well as multimedia artists like Luise Zücker, Sophie Yukiko, Parissa Charghi & Gîn Bali.

The band’s long term passion and persistence landed SALOMEA firmly into the European music scene, seeing them light up some of the hottest festival stages like Elbjazz (Arte concert), ÜBERJAZZ, co pop, XJAZZ, Berlin Popkultur, Jazz Open, Moers Festival, Cologne Jazzweek (GER), Chile Jazzfestival (CL), Tallinn Music Week (EE), Athens Music Week (GR), Waves Vienna (AT), Jazzablanca (Morocco) and Avignon Jazz Festival (FR) and winning them an equally passionate fan base along the way. 

Against the backdrop of Hip hop infused Jazz and trappy Electronica SALOMEA offers their music and the stories that come with it as a place, a sound and a feeling of belonging and freedom.
