The latest release CRYSTERIA opens a new chapter in CRYSTAL BALL’s history. In its third decade the band is far from only repeating itself. One may always find new and fresh energetic elements in the band’s music. During the COVID-19 hiatus the band has spend an intensive amount of time to work on a whole lot of new material. Therefore they have been able to choose from more than 30 songs for CRYSTERIA. The new guitarist Peter Berger has shown himself as a very suitable and motivating Input. He could come up with many songs and ideas for the new album. In fact, the production of CRYSTERIA by Stefan Kaufmann (ex-Accept, ex-U.D.O.) has been improved once more and is reflecting the band’s energy, so often seen during their live performances. The album contains the duett «Call Of The Wild », featuring Ronnie Romero (Rainbow, MSG, etc). The band has been friends with him since a festival in Switzerland in 2018. Another duett can be found on the album: «Crystal Heart» is a band collaboration together with Jaded Heart. The song is written by members of both bands. The two bands has been friends for a long time. The planed German tour for 2022 was cancelled due to the pandemic. The CRYSTERIA tour continues in 2023! Grab it here!

We are very sorry for all Crystalheads. We were looking forward to this show.

Conclusion of the year at the Hall of Fame

On December 3rd 2022 we will celebrate the end of the year at the Hall of Fame in Wetzikon, Switzerland. Here’s the link for the ticket presale. Last year the concert had to be postponed because of covid. We’re very glad to catch up now. Our collegues of Fighter V will open up the evening for us.

The HEAT-Festival in Ludwigsburg (Germany) had to be postponed by the local promoters.

 

Postponed shows in Germany

Dear  Friends and Fans,
dear Crystalheads,
with a heavy heart we have to cancel or rather postpone the two CRYSTAL BALL shows in Germany, 22.09.22 in Wuppertal (LCB) and on 23.09.22 in Nuernberg (Der Cult).
The producibility and funding of both shows depended on a festival in Switzerland, which was postponed on short notice. The box-office results of both shows on their own was not even nearly enough to justify the effort to travel all the way from Switzerland to play these gigs. Therefore the management decided to pull the plug.
We will catch up both shows during our CRYSTAL BALL Autum tour in 2023. The tickets will stay valid or you can return them if you like so. All involved parties are very sorry. The band is looking forward to catch up these shows.
The upcomings shows in Switzerland are will take place as planed.

Swiss Rock und Metal Night postponed

We‘re sorry to share these bad news about the postponement of the 2. Swiss Rock and Metalnight. Unfortunately this decision it’s beyond our control. The promotor statement (on the left) says it’s because of economic reasons.

The new date is October 7th 2023!

More Festivals …

We’re looking forward to rock the upcoming festival. In August it’s the ROCK THE LAKES festival. Here you can check out the running order.

In September we’ll continue at ROCK THE RHY and the 2. SWISS ROCK&Metal Festival. And there are more headliner shows in Switzerland and Germany.
