Firstborn Unicorn - sounds like some magic trick, but nah... FU aint no magic trick! It's a powerful punch of Alternative Rock & Rap that will knock your socks off.
​
Since our founding in 2016, we’ve played over 170 shows in Germany and beyond – from small clubs to festivals like Trebur Open Air, blues & Jazz Festival, Bamberg, Rock auf der Burg, Königstein or Museumsuferfest, Frankfurt. We’ve also supported international bands like Feeder and False Heads on their tour legs through Germany.
​
We love going full throttle on stage, sweating, becoming one with the crowd, and just having a great time. Our influences range from RHCP and Rage Against the Machine to MF Doom or Eminem – anything goes, as long as it kicks.
The band currently consists of:
Eric (33) – Vocals & Guitar
Finn (21) – Drums
​​​
Since early 2024 we’ve been releasing singles folowed by our very first studio album in May 2025 – a huge milestone for us. After an intense 2025 festival season our longtime bassist Alu left the band to focus on his studies and personal life – a decision we fully respect.
Right now we’re taking the winter off to focus on finding a new bassist who’s excited to continue this journey with us.​
Who we’re looking for
✅ You play bass with passion and are between 20–35 years old
✅ You’re reliable and punctual
✅ You love funk/metal crossover like RHCP, RATM, Limp Bizkit
✅ You already have live experience
✅ You've got a tight sound and your own functioning gear
✅ You can imagine contributing background vocals as well
​
What we offer
🎸 Professional, reliable collaboration
🎸 paid gigs in 2026 in the Rhine-Main area & across Germany
🎸 Reach via our socials & networking with our partners
🎸 The chance (if you want) to become a permanent member
​​
How we do things
We rehearse as needed – meaning when tours, festivals, writing sessions, or recordings are coming up. Rehearsals can take place in Frankfurt, Mannheim, or North Hesse (Schwalmstadt).
​
As of now these are our goals for 2026:
🦄 Play approx. 10 festivals / shows
🦄 Keep the momentum going
🦄 Grow together as a band
​
And most importantly: a respectful, open vibe with zero bullshit – no room for racism, sexism, homophobia, or any other kind of exclusion.
