Herbert Pixner has been called the Jimi Hendrix of folk music or the Frank Zappa of the Alps. He has been compared to Piazzola and Paganini and yet the South Tyrolean-born musician has created and developed a completely unmistakable musical style over the years. We are talking about Herbert Pixner, multi-instrumentalist, composer, producer and namesake of the Herbert Pixner Project.

Together with his congenial stage partners Manuel Randi (guitars) Werner Unterlercher (bass) and now in a new line-up with Alessandro Trebo (piano and keyboards) and Elisabeth Jamnik (harp), the Herbert Pixner Project has been one of the most successful representatives of "new and progressive folk music" for over twenty years now. With playful and lascivious gentleness, powerful rock and blues riffs, brilliant technique and an extatic joy of playing, they have been delighting an ever-growing audience for years. They weave a diverse tapestry of sound, there is room for gentle melancholy and also for outbursts that stop at nothing. It sounds minimalist, rugged, epic and authentic. With this unconventional mixture, the "Herbert Pixner Project" electrifies its audience anew with every concert.
