Lilli Kornhuber Quartett

Powerful melodies and lyrics that resonate. Walking bass, beats, improvisation, and samples woven into jazz and pop structures at the intersection of madness and tenderness.

Art guaranteed to give you goosebumps—that’s what the Lilli Kornhuber Quartet, founded in 2024, stands for, creating music that touches the soul through their intimate interplay. Lilli Kornhuber studies voice at the University of Music and Performing Arts Graz and the Cologne University of Music and Dance and is currently a member of the Austrian Federal Jazz Orchestra. She writes powerful melodies and lyrics that resonate. Themes such as home, God, family, and feminism play essential roles and are explored in her debut EP, *ok, solved my drama, let's go!*, released in October 2025.

Lilli is currently in the creative process of making an album that finds expression through minimalist lyrics, poems, questions, and absurd thoughts. Musically, she blends walking bass, beats, improvisation, and samples within jazz and pop structures. “A deeply energetic pull at the intersection of madness and tenderness”
