WDR Rockpalast published the whole performance by Wucan recorded at Rock Hard Festival 2023. Watch the video through the YouTube player below:
Wucan bring retro sound together with modern Heavy Rock – despite the influences of bands like Renft, Lucifer’s Friend, Birth Control and Krautrock in general, which cannot be ignored, the band is still focused on its own style.
Wucan formed in Dresden in 2012. Singer Francis Tobolsky placed an ad in a student magazine with the subject “Blues Brothers Wanted.” Shortly after, the band was complete and released their first demos via YouTube the following year. The first gigs followed in 2013 and the debut EP “Vikarma” in 2014. Since 2015, the band has regularly released studio albums and is a welcome guest in clubs and at festivals.
The Wucan style leaves room for Jam Rock passages, flute parts and Metal guitar riffs. Especially the characteristic voice of the almost bursting with energy singer Francis, who does not shy away from emotionality and melancholy, stands out. Wucan master the complete palette from 70’s Folk Rock to Hard Rock in the here and now – a journey through time with a return ticket.
