Remember listening to Michael Learns To Rock’s many songs including ‘Take Me To Your Heart’ through your cassettes or CDs that friends and relatives would ‘burn’ and we cherish till today? Most of us have grown up listening to the Danish pop rock band, better known as MLTR, and life would be incomplete without spending hours glued to their songs. Most of their songs like ‘That’s Why You Go Away’ and ‘Sleeping Child’ have existed on our playlists long before we were plugged in and listening to them through our mobile phones as they were on cassettes or CDs. It was because of the hypnotic vocals of pianist Jascha Richter along with lead guitarist Mikkel Lentz and drummer and percussionist Kåre Wanscher, that made us all want to sing along.
More than five years after they performed in the city, Mumbaikars were finally able to watch the band in the city when they recently performed at Dublin Square in Phoenix Marketcity Kurla. It was an experience like no other because fans were able to sing along the same way. In the past, the venue has seen the likes of international acts like UB40 and Eric Clapton as well as Indian favourites such as KK, Mika Singh and Amit Trivedi and this was no different. Organised by KCT Entertainment, the performance was a part of their ‘Back On the Road’ seven-city tour, which saw them start it with Aizawl and Guwahati, followed by Mumbai, and just concluded their performance in Bengaluru this weekend.
