Mambo Kurt (born Rainer Limpinsel; 11 April 1967 in Hagen) is a German artist who does covers of various mainstream and classical/modern rock hits. More than just a comedy and novelty act, Mambo has played The Wacken Open Air festival and provides music for a German television show called Verona's World . but when he plays the covers , he does them a little different from the usual type of song, as he plays a home organ and changes the style of the song into a Bossa Nova, Samba or Polka style song.
