About

Giant Rooks, founded in 2015 by two cousins and three friends in a rehearsal room in Hamm, is probably the most promising band Germany has had in a long time. Their accomplishments so far are impressive and multiple. Their monthly listeners on Spotify are in the millions, and they've brought venues from all over the world to maximum capacity, like House of Blues (San Diego), and stages in Rome to Paris to Manchester. In Germany, they play venues that other artists only play after 15 years of constant touring.

Between 2015 and 2019, the five-piece played more than 350 shows and established their reputation as an extraordinary live act. Last year they released their internationally acclaimed debut album "ROOKERY" and it entered the German charts at #3. The 12-song album, including the radio hits "Wild Stare" and "Watershed", is a powerful artistic statement that highlights the diverse and rich musical palette of the band. Their Kanye- esque hip hop beats, song structures drawn from the Bob Dylan archives, and soundscapes dripping with the seductive qualities of Bon Iver, all work together to create a modern and unique sound born out of their desire to not be pigeon-holed into one genre. They also released "Rookery Live Tapes" in June 2021, an EP full of beautifully stripped- down versions of songs from their debut album.

    Great Show at a Great Venue

    by Matt on 5/7/24Emo's Austin - Austin

    John and I drove to Austin on a whim to see the Giant Rooks which we had found on Youtube. The show ended up at Emo's and I was surprised just how good the bands were. While the opening act relied on prerecorded tracks to support her and the drummer, Loviet was excellent and engaging and I have started listening to her music. Giant Rooks were definitely operating on all cylinders an put on a high energy tight show. They are a band that is great recorded but even better live where the energy between the band and the audience is freely flowing.

    LLOOOOVVVEE GIANT ROOKS

    by Shelbyy22 on 5/3/24The Regent Theater - Los Angeles

    I absolutely love Giant Rooks and am so grateful to be able to see them again! Their stage presence is EVERYTHING. They never cease to amaze me with their performances!! With that being said, I don’t think I’ll ever go to Regent Theater again. Definitely not one I would recommend.

    I love the Giant Rooks ❤️

    by Maddie on 4/23/24The Underground - Charlotte

    This band is absolutely amazing. They truly deserve to be a well known band. This was my second time seeing them live (the first was when they opened for Louis Tomlinson in Charlotte). The energy they bring to the stage is incredible and I can’t wait to see them again.

    10/10

    by Amber on 4/23/24The Underground - Charlotte

    I saw Giant Rooks for the first time when I saw Louis back in Charlotte last year. As soon as GR performed I instantly fell in love. Their stage presence hit the roof for me! They interact with their fans and knows how to keep a show going. They actually came out to meet some fans! I even met Finn! Some of the GR fans were a bit rude but there were a lot that were SO nice and made the experience better. I hope GR comes back to the US soon! I miss them already.

    one of the most incredible experiences of my life

    by julia on 4/20/24The Underground - Charlotte

    i followed giant rooks for four north american shows from nyc - charlotte. i can’t get enough of this band. they are literal rockstars, and so lovely in every way. i am trying to do anything i can to see them for more shows even if i have to travel across the world to germany for it. these shows are absolutely addictive, the vibes are fantastic, and i simply cannot stop thinking about those shows and how much i wish i could go back. not only is every song a literal work of art, the band members and team are too !! the (very handsome) band have so much stage presence and yet are so genuine and friendly when off the stage. the photographer, managers, opening acts, every single one of those people are incredible. talented, fun, thoughtful, and just absolute joys to interact with. even the crowd is usually happy and agreeable. i made so many friends at these shows and feel so honored to have experienced these concerts. i’ve been to more concerts than i can count these past few years but this one is definitely among the greatest. please, for the love of god, go to a giant rooks show and you will be so glad you did. with regards to one show in particular, i’d like to make a shout out as well. jelani m, the live nation security for the show at the underground in charlotte, made the experience even more amazing. he was so kind and helpful, extremely accommodating and understanding. never in my life have i been to a concert with such a good-hearted, competent, and compassionate head of security like him. he worked with us rather than against us, which is a breath of fresh air and so appreciated. at the same time, he meant business, and whenever something needed to be addressed, he did so promptly, skillfully, and fairly. jelani m truly represents the joy that is a live music experience as he makes it clear that artists, concertgoers, and staff are all united by their shared passion for live performances. we can work together and have the most magical concert experiences as long as we all treat eachother with compassion the way jelani does. so thank you very much to him !! in short, buy the concert ticket. this one is unforgettable. you’ll never know how much a concert can change your life until you get home afterwards and wonder how you even lived beforehand. just make sure to line up another concert for shortly after to take the edge off the post-concert depression.

    Amazing energy!!

    by Krista on 4/20/24The Underground - Charlotte

    Giant Rooks is one of my favorite bands to see live. They bring such great energy and put in a fun show! I've seen them 3x, all different venues types. I will say, the shows are best if the venue has a decent size stage. Fred is super high energy, running around, and plays multiple instruments as part of the show. They have great crowd interaction and do a great job moving around so you can see your favorite band members no matter which side you are on. This last venue I saw them at (The Underground in Charlotte) the stage was really small. The show was still great, but I did notice they looked pretty cramped up there compared to other venues I've seen them at. Fred's voice is so unique and rich, i love listening to it. These guys are pretty new to the music scene here in the states but they deserve to be huge. Great song writing, live performances, and super cool, down to earth guys!
