IL CIVETTO

The Berlin-based band IL CIVETTO writes songs that transport their listeners into the warm light of a southern French sunset or the mild gold of a late summer evening in the big city. Their pop sound, which incorporates elements of Latin American music and nuances of French and Portuguese, invites the audience to dream and dance.

With their albums Späti del Sol (2022) and Liebe auf Eis (2024), the five-piece band has built up a steadily growing community over the last few years. IL CIVETTO's musical identity is characterised by the great adventurousness and openness of a far-travelled band. At their great live shows, songs such as ‘Rio-Reiser-Platz’, ‘Andere Welt’ and ‘Alles was ich hab’ have established as real anthems.

IL CIVETTO's journey began using guerrilla tactics in the Berlin subway in 2010: Playing in the train and shaking the wagon. Bribing the securities with kebab to play longer.
Growing up in Berlin’s club scene with appearances in Kater Holzig, Ritter Butzke or Sisyphos, the band scores an impressive success story: four highly acclaimed albums, several tours in GAS with a total of more than 500 concerts, appearances at Open Flair, Fusion Festival, Montreux Jazz Festival, Deichbrand or PULS Open Air.

The band's songs have always been about wanderlust, longing and the feeling of being on the road. The title of their current album ‘Liebe auf Eis’ can be understood as a symbolic image for everything this band is about. Euphoria and melancholy are not opposites for IL CIVETTO; where there is light, there is also shadow. Their music is about enduring contradictions, bridging divides, overcoming the social coldness of polarised times with love.

In addition to their new music, IL CIVETTO also performs songs from their first albums il Civetto and Späti del Sol live. Long-time fans as well as new ones can look forward to a diverse repertoire, where the following still applies: deeply touching, always danceable.
