The Picturebooks, an evocative and gritty blues-rock duo, have carved out a distinct space within the contemporary music landscape with their electrifying and deeply raw sound. Hailing from Gütersloh, Germany, the band consists of Fynn Claus Grabke (vocals, guitar) and Philipp Mirtschink (drums), who together create a sonic experience that blends blues, rock, and garage rock elements with an almost primal intensity. Their music is marked by Grabke's haunting vocal delivery and the duo's minimal yet powerful instrumentation, often using customized motorcycles as part of their drum setup to add a unique texture to their sound.
Over the years, The Picturebooks have steadily built a diverse and rich discography, marked by a series of collaborations with artists from various genres, showcasing their versatility and wide appeal. Recent releases like "Back To LA," "Masquerade," and "The Major Minor Collective (Bonus Track Edition)" highlight their ability to merge their raw, energetic sound with contributions from guests like Elin Larsson (Blues Pills), Chris Robertson, Jon Harvey (Monster Truck), Lzzy Hale, and Neil Fallon, among others. With "The Early Years," they offer a glimpse into their formative moments, tracing their evolution into the compelling force they are today. The Picturebooks have not only managed to captivate audiences worldwide with their compelling live performances but also continually push the boundaries of their sound, establishing themselves as a dynamic and innovative force in the rock music scene.
