Die mongolische Band THE HU hat traditionelle Musik, Instrumentierung und Gesang in ihrer Muttersprache mit westlichem, modernem Rock kombiniert, um einen einzigartigen und eingängigen Sound zu schaffen, den sie „Hunnu Rock“ nennen. Vor kurzem ist ihr zweites Studioalbum „Rumble Of Thunder“ erschienen, mit dem sie auch für einige Shows nach Deutschland, Österreich und die Schweiz kommen. In unserem WunderfragenInterview haben sie nicht nur bewiesen, wie charismatisch sie sind, sondern auch, dass sie eine gute Portion Humor haben. Wie sich das auswirkt? Lest es am besten selbst!
Frontstage Magazine: If you wake up tomorrow morning and you are on the cover of the New York Times, then…
The HU:… we dance like crazy, make TikTok about it and call everyone to buy the NYT.
Frontstage Magazine: When you leave the house and three old ladies are standing in front of your door and ask for a photo with you, then…
The HU:… we just absolutely hug them and scream „WE ARE THE HU“ for every photo. Our fans know we do that so if they are loyal fan, they would be expecting it.
Frontstage Magazine: If your musical idol calls you at an inopportune moment, then…
The HU:… take the call no matter what! Shower, going number two, birth of my first born, no matter. WILL TAKE THE CALL ANYTIME.
Frontstage Magazine: If you wake up tomorrow and in the morning you don’t know anything about your band, then…
The HU:… I will be the biggest fan. Coolest hair and coolest instruments! (laughing)
Frontstage Magazine: If you have to ban a song from your discography once and for all, then…
The HU:… it would be „baby shark“ because it is on replay all day everyday in our households. (grining)
Frontstage Magazine: If your biggest source of inspiration told you that your music was the biggest load of crap ever, then…
The HU:… we will be sad for a second and we will tell them they are full of it because we are the real deal. You have to believe in yourself no matter what.
Frontstage Magazine: If someone told you they wanted to tattoo your logo or one of your song lines, then…
The HU:… we would be thrilled and recommend the one with our name logo(with tiger). We see so many of our fans tattooed our faces and names but never the logo.
Frontstage Magazine: If Jimmy Kimmel would invite us to his show, then…
The HU:… we will perform „Yuve Yuve Yu“ because we think he will love it and his audience too! The song has 100 million views on Youtube and it is the song which helped us get a world wide recognition.
Frontstage Magazine: If we could organise your own festival, then…
The HU:… we will call it „The HU Festival“ and invite all of the artists we are friends with and worked with. Mongolia is beautiful place to be so everyone will have a chance to enjoy the nature while they are there.
Frontstage Magazine: If, starting tomorrow, every human being could travel back and forth to any number of parallel earths untouched by humans, then…
The HU:… we would travel everywhere and perform in each of the earth (assuming there are aliens in these untouched earth).
