Rome
Luxembourg-born singer-songwriter Jerome Reuter founded his multilingual project ROME (the name stems from the abridged version of his first name) in 2005 and has since created an authoritative body of work encompassing more than 17 albums and numerous other official releases. ROME’s musical and lyrical world is genuinely unique, blending traditional songwriting craftsmanship, challenging arrangements and fine poetry into one monstrous and intimate musical output that combines chanson, dark ambient, apocalyptic folk, acoustic rock, martial industrial, cold wave -- all rolled into one impressive avantgarde package. Lyrically inspired by world literature from Burroughs to Brecht, Celine to Celan, Yeats to Jünger, Reuter's detailed, well-researched, yet particularily accessible concept albums combine his interest in history, philosophy and the arts in a most compelling way and have established Reuter’s unique sonic ‘poetry of longing’.
In late 2022, ROMEs latest album "Hegemonikon" will see the light of day and the final date of their European Tour will be held at their homebase in Luxembourg: The Kulturfabrik.
