Purple Muscle Car have been on the road since the end of 2022, taking their audiences on musical journeys.

These often take them to the urban regions of the world, where the sounds of jazz cafés, hip hop, indie and EDM clubs as well as large concert halls merge into an exciting mix. Chases on winding coastal roads followed by reconciliation in a beach café are just as much a part of the program as leisurely cruising with cruise control on the freeway towards the sunset in order to catch the midnight special at the American Diner. The disco ball on the inside of the car roof can be activated at any time, and the imaginary journey towards the Milky Way can be continued late at night with the telescope from the trunk.

Good music is provided on the tour anyway! The compositions of the two pilots Fabian Rucker and Philipp Nykrin provide a catchy route, but there is always room for spontaneous stops.

The Purple Muscle Car racing team has a fantastic crew: Navigator Alois Eberl forms the band's lead vocal duo with Rucker, sometimes leading the journey in intense dialog, sometimes in long solo excursions. Mechanic Herbert Pirker provides the necessary horsepower with his irrepressible joy of playing and virtuosity. Complemented by Nykrin's keyboard parts, the band grooves between vintage sounds and futuristic electronics - anything is possible.

Purple Muscle Car: With the release of the band's first album on Rucker's label Wavebreeder Records, the journey really gets underway. It will certainly never feel like a long car ride!
