Short Bio

Gentle Beast - these are fuzzy, brutal desert rock riffs paired with psychedelic cosmic sounds. Just as the name suggests, a lovechild between mystical gentleness and wild beast. Carried by frontman Timo Dinter's dusty voice and the distorted guitar walls of Manuel Ciofalo and Janek Huschke, Alexander Streit on drums and Tobias Rickli on bass have completed the band for around two years. It has always been clear to the Basel dudes that they want to do more than just generic stoner rock. The live shows of these friendly beasts are correspondingly varied. Collective head-nodding, dancing with a giant plush joint or jumping into the audience for the final Kyuss cover are the order of the day.
