A visit with Christopher Blenkinsop, Kiki Sauer and Dirk Trageser of 17 Hippies, the defiantly acoustic band from techno-mad Berlin that was drawn to the music of Eastern Europe after the fall of the Berlin wall. 17 Hippies will be in NYC on Monday January 12 at the Highline Ballroom playing a world music showcase in conjunction with APAP, the annual Arts Presenters Conference along with Mamadou Diabate, Rob Curto’s Sanfona and Vagabond Opera. (Rock Family Tree note: Founding / current bandmember Lutz Ulbrich and sometime collaborator Harald Grosskopf are members of the legendary Krautrock band Ash Ra Tempel. )
