"Stoppel & Bart", alias Christoph Battaglia and Jürg Meili, combine fast guitar riffs with shimmering rhythms to create a style that combines flamenco and rock as well as old music and jazz..and sometimes they even remind you of Led Zeppelin. Battaglia and Meili show masterful skill with dynamics that are surprising on an acoustic guitar. It is art full of empathy and a firework of interpretation and improvisation. The duo inspires with their virtuosity and joy of playing from start to finish. In addition to music for guitar lovers, "Stoppel & Bart" occasionally integrate dialect pieces. This allows them to reach a wide audience, from musicians to amateurs.

PRESSETEXT COPY & PASTE

"Stoppel & Bart", alias Christoph Battaglia and Jürg Meili, combine fast guitar riffs with dazzling rhythms to create a style that combines flamenco and rock as well as old music and jazz.

"...and somehow their music also often sounds like Led Zeppelin..."

With two acoustic guitars, a dobro and occasional dialect vocal interludes, they love to surprise an attentive audience with their unusual original compositions and interpretations. "Stoppel & Bart are a guitar duo who constantly throw themes, riffs and improvised solos back and forth, often at breakneck speed, infectious, fiery... but sometimes tricky and unusual - but always groovy and liberating. In between, you get to know the musicians with humorous stories and honest, amusing explanations of how one song or another came about, or from which role models they "stole" certain songs and made them their own.
