We spoke with Keith Duncan and Johannes von Weizsäcker, two members of The Chap, ahead of their upcoming performance at the Torstraßen Festival.
The band, who has challenged themselves in recent years to release a series of concept albums which push them beyond their comfort zone, shares some thoughts on their tenure together.
The Chap will be playing Torstraßenfest at the Volksbühne on Sept. 7 in Berlin. Find out more on our web page.
