REAL KEEPERS

Bobo Niyah aka. Jah Sesco and Walter Stobbe are the two founder members of this band. Already in 1998, they jointly added the music to a "Smint" (Chupa Chups) television commercial. Thereafter, Walter concentrated on his engineering studies, which he completed successfully in 2002. After obtaining his degree, Walter devoted himself to studio production again. Within one year, he had planned, built and equipped his new sound studio (SAV-Media). Meanwhile Sesco had attended to his own music projects. Amongst other things, he had produced the video clip "No Secrets", which was screened on MTV and VIVA, together with Cappuccino. In 2002, he became a member of the "Riddim-Wize-Crew" with regular gigs at the O-25 in Frankfurt/Main. Three times already he formed part of the line-up of the Summer Jam in Cologne. In 2006 he released his solo album "Keepin' it Real" by Cesbeatz Productions. Bob Niyah's second solo album "The Observer" was released in January 2010.
REAL KEEPERS
In late summer 2006, Walter and Sesco decided to join their creativity again with Walter contributing his rock music roots and Jah Sesco his roots and reggae influences. REAL KEEPERS were set out to be a live band. Therefore, the band was completed with Markus Bottler at the bass guitar and Christian Schlick at the drums. Christian left the band in march 2009 for personal reasons. It took very long time to find a new drummer. But finally, in december 2009 the band was complete again. Florian Pfaff was the new member then, but unfortunetaly, he had to leave the band one year later (job) . Three months before, in October 2010 Markus left the band on his will. He had a different opinion about the future of the band and didn't want to take same path which the other band members had chosen. A new drummer could be found very quickly (Sándor Hum), but it took long time to find a new bassplayer, but in may 2012 Ralf Brehmer joined the band. He's got the vibes that we need.
Within this band, the multicultural lifestyle is alive and not just a topic of conversation. Real Keepers offer international music flavour without appearing cheesy and boring to people. Fat Reggae-vibes combined with metal riffs hard as bone. RK aim to sweep along many people with this crossover of the special kind, particularly during their live performances!
