  • Bio

    .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. With one foot in the past and one in the future, The New Prohibition Band forges a new hybrid of neo-folk-electronica. Imagine roots Americana steeped in hypnotic electro-bass from the dual oscillators of the Novation Bass Station; add original compositions, chilling vocals, bewitching mountain harmonies, and inspired improvisations, and you can see why East Bank Radio of Nashville, Tennessee said this power trio delivers “plenty of bang for the buck.” The sound centers around the driving songs and enchanting voice of clawhammer banjoist/guitarist Cera Impala [The Blackberry Bushes, Kill Bambi], joined by Dirk Ronneburg [Head for the Hills Bluegrass Band, The ShoeSwing Stringers] on violin, and Jovanka von Wilsdorf [Quarks, The Scheining, Kill Bambi] on bass-station. The NPB has toured in the US and Europe, and are currently based in Berlin, Germany. .. .. ..

    Hey Dirk, sounding and looking great! Guess, this is a great idea of kicking traditional music into the 21st century! Hope I can see it live soon!
    Best from Leipzig!

    Hi Cera, Dirk and the Band,
    allmählich sind unsere Herbst-Pläne für Berlin konkret.
    Wäre doch schön, wenn ihr Ende September/Anfang Oktober irgendwo in der Hauptstadt einen Gig habt, zu dem wir kommen könnten - oder Zeit und Lust, abends ein (oder zwei) Bier/Wein/Apfelschorle/Caipirina/whatever zu trinken.
    Meldet euch doch einfach, würde mich freuen, euch mal wieder zu treffen.
    Was macht überhaupt der Nachwuchsmusiker?
    Spielt er noch mit dem Räppelchen oder schon Banjo/Geige/Mandoline/Gitarre?
    ;-)
    Gruss vonne Ruhr in moll und DUR,
    Detlef
