Fifty Foot Mama

Biographie

The group has been formed in 2006 by Nadja Zela, ex Singer/Guitarist of the Swiss Girl rockband Rosebud. Zelas unique voice and ego found a big enough body of rhythm in the play of Fisch (dr) and Lenz (b), which both toured around for years with the punkish and legendary polit-band «Der böse Bub Eugen». The band has been completed with Roli strobel (fingerpoke, Welttraumforscher), which brought in a crooked and very own guitar style.

Zela belongs to the Helsinki-Club-Scene, loved and pushed by godfather Tom Rist since years.
The first album 'Hard and Soul' will be out in October 2007 on kuenschtli.ch.

The sound has been described as «Zürichs best Rock'n'Soul» (Tagesanzeiger).

The band is known for wild and passionate live acts.
