In the organizer's words:

Quetschn pop meets synth groove: Austria's exceptional trio brings its unmistakable sound to Germany once again

With their mixture of Quetschn, synthesizer and pointed dialect pop, folkshilfe have become a permanent fixture in the German-speaking music scene in recent years. Whether radio airplay, sold-out tours or multiple award-winning songs - the trio around Paul Slaviczek, Gabriel Fröhlich and Florian Ritt has found its very own place between pop, folk and electronic lightness.

Now folkshilfe are announcing a tour of Germany that will start in fall 2026 and take the trio back to Bavaria in spring 2027. Five club shows are on the tour schedule - and anyone who knows folkshilfe knows that these evenings will be intense live moments in which danceable beats and touching lyrics come together effortlessly.

Between tradition and innovation

For over a decade, thinking outside the box has been the band's trademark. Their unique combination of traditional instruments and modern synth sounds has long since achieved cult status. Ever since their Amadeus nominations - including Song of the Year, Live Act of the Year and "Ohne di" - it has been clear that folkshilfe cannot be categorized stylistically, but are all the more enduring in the hearts of their audience.

And the trio continues to develop consistently. New musical facets, stronger electronic elements, emotional moments of depth and rousing live arrangements characterize the current folkshilfe sound, which will take center stage on tour in 2026/27. Their songs tell of real life: of loss and new beginnings, of social issues, of closeness, hope - and again and again of the touching "human touch" that makes folkshilfe so unmistakable.
