In promoting his freshly released album “Hot Damn,” the disco-pop-dance musical engineer Van Hechter promises something unusual and unorthodox, but again, there has never been anything typical about him…I mean, he has proved this on more than one occasion. The nights have been set in all your favorite entertainment venues and nightclubs all around Montreal, where music melomaniacs will be gathered for nights of glitz and glamour, enjoying their drinks as they dance with thoughtless abandon to the live performances of Van Hechter backed by exhilarating DJ sets and some unpredictably invigorating audience teasers guaranteed to get everyone on the edge of their seats or tables for that matter!
Action-packed are what these tours promise to be, and if there is something Van excels at, it is being improvisational and ingenious at it. So, instead of going to the too-obvious, cliché, and somewhat mediocrely atypical conventional shows, he decided, Why not give the audiences a once-in-a-lifetime sonic treat that they will never forget?
With these Neo-disco inspired Cabaret shows, the audiences are the real stars and really get to indulge into this parallel sonic universe, created, engineered, fine-tuned, and custom-made specifically for their own pleasure and enjoyment as Van merely guides into the crest of the sonic awesomeness that awaits.
Fanning the flames of his own legendary, Van promises nights of glitz, glow, drama, drinks, and dance as the music flows in from every corner, backed by spotlight-stealing live singing, plenty of profoundly charming and cheekily hysterical moments, dance-to-the-tunes epic DJ sets, and on-the-edge improvised contests.
A stunning celebration of dance and music aimed at entertaining his loyal fans as well as reminding them to live in the moment, forget life’s troubles, and wallow in the sonic pleasure that his disco music affords, Van’s Neo-Disco Cabaret-inspired shows are not to be missed—they most certainly promise to be a ‘Hot Damn.’
With that said, it is of vital importance that you follow Van Hechter on Instagram @vanhechter for real-time updates.
