With their fresh and independent "American Music - Eurostyle" MvM & Bluesoul took 2nd place in the 2013 International Blues Challenge in Memphis. Since then the 2Meter Hühne from Rheda Wiedenbrück has been successfully on the European stages together with Bluesoul. Musically you can't put this band in drawers. American Roots is the big headline of the versatile band, which always packs various musical elements such as blues, country, soul, funk and rock music in the guise of self-composed songs.
"In our musical development, I see this band more in the 'collective singer / songwriter' category, as we work on the songs together. Our origins in blues music are always palpable, although we as Europeans always fall back on different musical styles. This is part of ours Identity ", says singer and guitarist Michael van Merwyk.
The reason given by the international jurors for the positive assessment of the band in 2013 in Memphis was, among other things, the originality of their own compositions. Permanent "standing ovations" from the audience in the finale underpinned the lyrical qualities of the songs in particular. Likewise, the band's musical performance and the sympathetic, permanently audience-oriented entertainment were praised. Anyone who has ever seen this band live will understand what was meant by it.
