Emanating from sweaty basements and garages, a sound is ringing in ears all over Freiburg.

 Many insist that the noise is a public menace, and are concerned about the strange behaviour of birds eversince it began 3 years ago. Others think it is the call of Radiohead’s and the Arctic Monkeys’ new- born, illegitimate heir. The more fantastically minded believe it to be the sigh of a chimera reflecting on its confused emotional state. In fact, the real cause of the noise is a public menace, a sighing chimera, and a bastard child of the last decades’ greatest bands all at the same time…. a group of animals hardly understood by science:

The Paraducks. 

Who are we ?

 Since we started playing together in Freiburg 3 years ago, we have built a repertoire of around 40 songs. These include 30+ covers of an eclectic range of artists including Buzzcocks, Caroline Polacheck and Whitney Houston, and ca. 10 originals for headbanging, dancing, or crying to. We played wonderful gigs in 2023 including the Jazzhaus Freiburger Rampe, Freiburg Stimmt Ein, la fête de la musique in Mulhouse and the Stadttheater Sommerstage in Freiburg.
