Former Michelin-starred restaurant chef Tobias Sudhoff is back on the road "Iss still something...!" Sudhoff's new programme of tasty world salvation

Tobias Sudhoff and his band, featuring Helge Schneider drumming legend Willy Ketzer and Paul G. Ulrich on bass (who no one will ever know what exactly the G. in his name stands for...), are back on tour! After successfully performing their last programme "Iss was...!?" in almost 100 cities, it was time for a new programme. From October 2026 until the end of 2028, the three will be back on the road with "Iss was...!" on their mission to convince audiences of the sensual salvation of the world. Change through pleasure instead of a raised index finger - with great music and hilarious humour - and even a few treats for the audience! There has never been a show that appeals to all the senses like this - heart, brain, ears, eyes, nose and tongue!

Never has the fight to protect the planet tasted better and been so much fun!

Tobias Sudhoff offers guidance in times of indifferent arbitrariness and complete chaos. He calls for a new enlightenment, Kant for the senses - to interpret the world and its beauty, which is worth protecting, in a sensual and meaningful way. His motto: If you no longer see any reason for hope, then become the reason for hope!

And so this wonderfully senseless lover of life wanders between Riesling Kabinett and captivating musical cabaret, while the audience nibbles from a plate every now and then, and learns and marvels - about this existentialist humour.about this existentialist humourist, who fascinates people with his grandiose music and extraordinary lyrics, brings them to fits of laughter and can sometimes even move them to tears. A man full of infectious joie de vivre and energy, who inspires people to reflect and think with his unsparing thoughts and who, as a former chef of a Michelin-starred restaurant, also brings many a secret anecdote from the cosmos of gastronomy and the lazy tricks of the food industry to the stage.

One thing is certain: at the end of such an evening, Sudhoff has seduced people - to understand their own senses as a window to this world out there and to love life with these senses.

This is what the press wrote about Tobias Sudhoff:

"simply enchanting!" (SZ)

"An excellent musician and a no less excellent cabaret artist - Sudhoff sings and plays his way through a magnificent evening" (Rheinische Post) "Entertaining cabaret paired with a lot of depth, wit and humour... he manages to move his audience again and again, because his observations are full of subtle humour and simply incredibly true" (Fränkische Nachrichten) "quick and extremely accurate on stage!" (Leipziger Volkszeitung)

On this evening full of humour, depth and joie de vivre, the band also has some really great music in its luggage, because the trio around Sudhoff truly brings heavyweights of jazz to the stage...

Tobias Sudhoff (voc/pi/vibes) has played in his own bands with Herb Geller, Charlie Mariano, Gerd Dudek and Knut Kiesewetter, among others, and has been on stage with greats such as Lee Konitz, Ron Williams, Bill Ramsey, Bernd Stelter and Sydney Youngblood.

Willy Ketzer (drums) is a legend on the drums - it is almost impossible not to have discs with his sound in a German record collection. Famous TV tunes such as Tatort, Aktuelle Sportstudio or Sendung mit der Maus - we all grew up with Willy's sound. He has played with everyone from Paul Kuhn (his drummer for over 30 years) or as a congenial partner to Helge Schneider to world stars such as Liza Minelli, Tom Jones and Harry Belafonte. As a jazz musician, he was also the one who set the beat on Doldinger's Passport...

Paul G. Ulrich (bass) also belonged to the Paul Kuhn Trio for a long time and played extensive tours with Benny Bailey, Bill Ramsey, Hugo Strasser and Jiggs Wigham, among others.

An evening full of clever wit, charming infotainment with a few sideswipes at the food industry, enjoyment and simply great, swinging jazz.

(Line-up tba, some performances take place with a smaller line-up!)
