Rikas

Rikas returns on 4 November 2026 to La Maroquinerie in Paris with the Dog Days tour. The Stuttgart quartet, formed by childhood friends, share songwriting, singing and the stage in a very collective spirit. Between indie pop, soulful touches and rock impulses, they rely on tight vocal harmonies and a playful groove, with a nod to their beginnings and the small venues that shaped their sound.

On the bill is a journey through their discography: from early steps with Swabian Samba and the album Showtime to the EPs Short Stories and Goodbye Sunshine, and including their second album Soundtrack For A Movie That Has Not Been Written Yet. They also offer a glimpse of Bedroom Tapes, five tracks recorded at the start in Sam’s parents’ bedroom and restored ten years later, which bring back the raw energy of their first sessions. Expect a set mixing key tracks, rarities and a few surprises, carried by Sam Luca Baisch, Sascha Scherer, Ferdinand Hübner and Chris Ronge — four voices and four instruments moving in step.
