Krautrock legend and lead vocalist of pioneering German band CAN brings ‘Damo Suzuki’s Network’ to The Mash House. Damo’s network will be made up of local musicians, otherwise known as music carriers, with the aim of creating a completely improvised set. Damo’s network project has taken place in 43 different countries with more than 7000 musicians, meaning every show is different and unique.
As a teenager, Suzuki spent the late 1960s wandering around Europe, often busking.
When Malcolm Mooney left Can after recording their first album Monster Movie, Holger Czukay and Jaki Liebezeit encountered Suzuki busking in Munich, Germany, whilst the two were sitting outside at a street café. They invited him to join the group, and he did, performing with them that evening.
Suzuki was with Can from 1970 to 1973, recording a number of well-regarded albums such as Tago Mago, Future Days and Ege Bamyasi. Suzuki's first vocal performance with Can was "Don't Turn the Light On, Leave Me Alone" from Soundtracks. His freeform, often improvised lyrics, were sung in no particular language.
He returned to music in 1983, and currently leads what is known as "Damo Suzuki's Network" – as he tours, he performs live improvisational music with various local musicians, so-called "Sound Carriers".
The Fall's 1985 album This Nation's Saving Grace features a song "I Am Damo Suzuki," inspired by the singer. The rock band the Mooney Suzuki takes its name from Damo Suzuki and Can's earlier vocalist Malcolm Mooney.
Since 1997 he has been touring or playing separate gigs. He lives in Cologne.
