6 December 2024 - Die Fantastischen Vier
Die Fantastischen Vier live on "Long Player Tour" in 2024
In 2022 and 2023, Die Fantastischen Vier shattered all their records. After a triumphant anniversary tour in a number of Germany's biggest stadiums and over 30 other concerts in 2023 with a combined audience of over 400,000, Germany's most traditional rap act Die Fantastischen Vier are now announcing a major arena tour and a new studio album. In 2023, the band not only played the biggest stages in Germany, but also spent time together in the studio working on new songs and a new programme.
The studio album "Long Player" will be released on 4 October 2024 and the arena tour under the motto "Long Player On Tour" will start on 1 December 2024.
This year, the monumental documentary "Helden des Hip-Hop" ("Heroes of Hip-Hop") also offered a look back at the band's extensive history, the attention to detail of which exceeded all high expectations in an extensive 4-hour primetime programme on VOX and RTL+. To accompany this, the band produced 15 studio re-recordings of their greatest songs from very different eras at Little Big Beat Studios under the name "The Liechtenstein Tapes", just as they should sound today in top recording quality. The original studio versions meet the best of the live versions and charted straight to #3.
The history of the Fantastische Vier goes back to 1987, when they were founded as The Terminal Team. Since then, the band, who have been known as Die Fantastischen Vier since 1989, have sold millions of records, received numerous awards and platinum honours and sold out halls not only in Germany, Austria and Switzerland. With a proud 36 years in the music business, they are not only one of Germany's biggest pop stories, but also the country's best-known rap act. On Friday, 6 December 2024, Die Fantastischen Vier will be coming to Zurich to perform live at the Hallenstadion!
