Tortoise, the Chicago-based instrumental band, is scheduled to perform at Ferien- und Freizeitpark Weissenhäuser Strand in Wangels, Germany on November 13, 2026.

Formed in 1990, Tortoise avoids traditional rock structures, often prioritizing texture and atmosphere over conventional song formats. Their instrumentation typically includes vibraphone, drums, guitars, bass and electronic elements.
