Dialect hits with a twist

With their unmistakable buttonbox/synth/pop, the guys from FOLKSHILFE have created a genre oftheir own that is now a key part of the German-language music landscape. Audiences stillsing alongto dialect hits like “Mir laungts”, “Seit a poa Tog” and “Simone” in far-flung corners of Austria andGermany. But their latest single “Hau di her”, which is a hymn-like song of praise for sociabletogetherness, also has crowd-pleasing potential. But this is just one of many catchy tunes found onthe powerful trio’s fourth studio album, due to be released in spring 2023. 

Having not missed a singleedition of this famous festival on Austrian soil over the past ten years, these multi-instrumentalistsreally come into their own when performing live.

The deep bass created by the revolutionaryinterplay of buttonbox and synthesizer is the booming trademark of FOLKSHILFE, who also combinetheir polyphonic vocals with guitar sounds and drum beats. A liveexperience you’ll never forget!
