The Boys and Kifer is an imaginary band but also an artistic, musical and visual project by the artist and composer Roberto Casti.
The name comes from the crippling of the names of two important German artists: Joseph Beuys and Anselm Kiefer.
The band combines music, lights, atmosphere and videos in unique events which act as proper social experiments. In this sense Roberto Casti, the artist who is behind the project, tries to unhinge the conventional logics of the concert in order to approach an artistic performance, but without creating a diversion from the music, which remains the mainstay of everything.
The concerts, all played solo, revolve around the atmosphere created by the songs.
Every event is different, and every parallel action, also on the internet, is made to complete the visual and musical universe of The Boys and Kifer.
