See them live now: 9th of June at Oxident, Frankfurter Allee 53, 9.30 p.m. 21st of June (Féte de la Musique) at Kamenz

"Pescadores de ventanas is a band which plays own songs, ranging from quiet, introspective,to strong rhythmically active pieces which drive people to dance. The music cannot be easily labeled in a determined style.

The name Pescadores de ventanas came after rehearsing in a flat with a view to the street, on the ground floor. When passers-by started to stop and ask what music was that, coming out of the window, came the thought: We're sort of fishing people from the window; that's the band name's meaning in spanish. The band is based in Berlin, Germany."
