Dews Pegahorn: The Madness Tour

On 21 March 2026, Dews Pegahorn brings his The Madness Tour to YOTO in Hamburg. The Stuttgart-born German–African rock musician, with roots in Madagascar and Angola, describes his sound as “danceable manic depression”: melancholic guitars, driving—at times wild—drums, and a voice full of atmosphere. Early inspired by Michael Jackson and shaped by 2Pac, he combines groove, melody and a clear, honest directness. His classical vocal training and years as a frontman are audible in his timing, in his dynamics and in the way he builds and releases tension.

Live, Pegahorn relies on raw expression, sharp edges and closeness. Between eruptive outbursts and fragile moments he maintains a strong connection with the audience and explores boundaries without losing his personal touch. The Madness Tour reads like a status report: songs that want to dance yet do not hide the darker corners—delivered with a presence that feels close without pathos.
