Phillip Boa (born Ernst Ulrich Figgen;[1] 18 January 1963) is a German independent musician, songwriter, singer, guitarist and composer.

[citation needed] The style of his lyrics is a mix of irony, love songs, sarcasm and is often of bizarre and deranged content.

In 2009, the Voodooclub teamed up with Can drummer the late Jaki Liebezeit, who played percussion and drums on their album Diamonds Fall.

[5][6] "Phillip Boa and the Voodooclub belong to the most prestigious German bands, which is also recognized from international critics and fans."

[8] Furthermore, he stands as one of the sharpest observers of our society and a distinguished songwriter in Germany, with "a cynical-poetic view, full of mysterious metaphors and sharp wisdom."

In 2012, British music journalist John Robb called Phillip Boa and the Voodooclub "one of the best German bands of the last three decades".
