Nighthunter – that is the energy of the 80s.
At a time when aside from Modern Talking or Boy George „real“
bands like Iron Maiden, Judas Priest or Metallica ranged on top of
the charts. Nighthunter are five rock-crazy musicians which lived
their youth during those thrilling times, who were active in various
bands and as a result are infected with the Rock-Virus forever. The
founding year of the band is 1995. |

Nighthunter – that means travelling back in time by 20 years.
With Coversongs by Judas Priest, Ozzy Osbourne, Mötley Crue,
Kiss, Iron Maiden etc. But those songs are not just played –
they are lived, celebrated and anybody who ever experienced Nighthunter
live on stage will vouch for that. Nighthunter offer a performance
second to none. Five charismatic guys pulling out all stops when on
stage – regardless of its size or the number of fans in front
of it.
Nighthunter were originally committed to coversongs. Until today we
do this with surprising authenticity. But for quite some time now
we are writing our own songs. And those of you who know us will appreciate
that we do take our time on occasion (except of course on stage) –
but that our songs are worth waiting for. And to prove that we did
win the much-coveted Minor Prix Walo with a song written by our vocalist
in 2004 in the category „Best Rock-Band“. This resulted
in appearances of Nighthunter at the Major Prix Walo and on Swiss
television.
Those and many other performances like e. g. the famous Open-Air at
Hoch-Ybrig, gigs with Primal Fear, Shakra etc. are Highlights of our
story which as of yet points always upwards...
