Milky Chance — Live at Summerjam Festival, 2022

Milky Chance performed at Summerjam Festival in Cologne, Germany, on July 2, 2022, delivering a vibrant set on one of the main stages. Formed in Kassel in 2012 by Philipp Dausch and Clemens Rehbein, the German duo rose to fame with their debut "Sadnecessary" (2013), and here they played material from "Living in a Haze" (2023), then upcoming, alongside earlier works. Their style blends Dausch’s acoustic guitars, Rehbein’s electronic beats and rhythms, and a breezy, melodic vocal delivery, crafting folk-pop with indie and reggae influences. The live show featured lively arrangements and a laid-back performance, highlighting their knack for building a festival vibe that gets the crowd moving. "Living in a Haze" introduced a dancier, modern edge, marking their growth since their breakout debut. Dausch sang with charisma, engaging the audience, while the band kept the energy flowing, boosting the set’s upbeat feel. Summerjam, a top European reggae festival, took place outdoors: a warm July evening and bright lighting set a chilled yet lively scene. This gig, part of their pre-release tour, showcased their skill in merging studio polish with live dynamism. The sound was clear, emphasizing guitars and rhythms, well-suited to the expansive setting.
