BIOGRAPHY
Who is this manic Master of Ceremonies who openly
confesses to the two grand black bohemians said
to be lunatic Sun Ra and George Clinton, and whose
stagings certainly remind us of a young Herman Sonny
Blount and his Solar Arkestra? In 1995 Khan leaves
the frosty soil of the city of Montreal playing
the bass for the International-Underground-Legends
THE SPACESHITS. The band is produced by Mike Mariconda
with a special guest appearance from the Fabulous
Andy G (Devil Dogs). Khan founds the secret lodge
of the KUKAMONGAS. During the oncoming years Khan
tours across the States. Detroit, New Orleans, New
York City, LA, San Francisco, Dallas, Tijuana etc.
Khan doesn’t return from the first Spaceshits-Europe-Tour
in summer of 1999. In Germany the young 22-year
old Canadian founds a Psychedlic-Soul-Big-Band THE
SENSATIONAL SHRINES. The first line-up includes
Ron Streeter (live-percussionist of Curtis Mayfield,
Stevie Wonder, Al Jarreau and other Soul-Legends),
as well as a horn section of rowdy teenagers, and
a rhythm section which can only be called a german/french
version of the Freak Brothers. Khan meets Fredovitch
(Bordeaux's wildest organ player) wearing a silverstudded
gogo dress, matching cowboy hat and sporting a full
beard. He dubs him into shrinehood only one week
before recording their first album in Toe Rag Studio
in London. THREE HAIRS & YOU’RE MINE is
produced by Liam Watson. THE SHRINES grow into an
all-star international movement. Their first concert
in London is suspended by the police. The band escapes
through the back-door. Numerous gigs will follow
all across Europe, among others with the Demolition
Dollrods, Mr.Quintron and Ms. Pussycat, an after-party
for 50 cent, even a legendary stint at the Roskilde
festival. In 2003 Khan encounters the Hazelwood-producers-team
Gordon “Two Horses” Friedrich and Wolfgang
“Amadeus” Gottlieb, who stage the second
longplayer MR. SUPERNATURAL in the beginning of
2004. |
