Marco Niemerski, better known by his stage name Tensnake, emerged from the disco-ball spotlight in 2010 with his hit single “Coma Cat”, which has since appeared in more than 50 compilations. Born in Hamburg circa 1975, the sounds of disco, boogie, soul, funk and of course 80’s pop all contribute to the groovy reverberations of this German DJ and producer.

In 2014, still celebrating the success of “Coma Cat”, Tensnake released his debut full-length album Glow featuring collaborations with Fiora, Jacques Lu Cont, MNEK and Nile Rodgers, among others. The album received favorable reviews, especially for the choice to include Fiora in almost half of its tracks.

This Friday, Niemerski will bring his luscious 80’s disco hooks to SF’s Mezzanine with Plastic Plates, Slaptop and The Split providing support. You can buy tickets for $25, or you could win a pair of tickets by registering your full name and email below.

Contest ends this Friday at 3 p.m.

A supergroup lineup of epic proportions graces the gorgeous stage of the Greek Theater at U.C. Berkeley this Saturday for one night only. Embarking on the second night of their 35-city “Wheels of Soul Summer Tour 2015,” Tedeschi Trucks Band partners with Sharon Jones & the Dap-Kings and guitarist Doyle Bramhall II to perform over four and a half hours of original, collaborative and improvised music. A seamlessly crafted bill of talent covering a musical range of Memphis soul, R&B, electric blues and classic funk, all three acts revive these deeply rooted genres with contemporary flare in a stunningly cohesive manner. With this tour charging full steam ahead, this show is bound to deliver what undoubtedly will be the most “shimmy worthy” lineup in the Greek Theater’s summer concert series.

Contest ends Friday, June 5th at Noon.
