The band's name "The Max. BOOGALOOs" is synonymous with an exuberant and dancy style of music, and with their new album "Symposion" (ancient Greek for "communal and sociable drinking") the musicians remain true to their credo: a blend of funk, soul, blues and a pinch of jazz, whose energy casts an unobtrusive and yet all the more irresistible spell on the listener.

An evening with "The Max. BOOGALOOs" feels like a party with your best friends: earthy grooves and energetic solo lines accentuate the flow of a varied set of tunes - each one of them original compositions telling the musicians’ stories.
