Melancholic to danceable indie folk pop that gets under your skin

PLAUSH. is the solo project of singer-songwriter Jan Plausteiner. He began writing his own songs at the age of 17 - as a kind of therapy for lovesickness and melancholy. Back then, he presented his first songs on the streets of Augsburg. Today, more than 10 years later, he tours Austria and the whole of Germany and captivates audiences at festivals, open airs and clubs with his catchy songs. He has won eight song slams and supported The Gardener & The Tree and DJANGO 3000, among others.

Inspired by musicians such as Bon Iver, Ben Howard, Mumford & Sons and Angus & Julia Stone, he tells personal stories in his lyrics and on stage. One example of this is "Kischa Pada", a setting of his emotional relationship with his Croatian father, which has had a lasting impact on his personal and musical development. The track is a nostalgic homage to his childhood; a journey from Germany to the Balkans, where he also wrote his first songs on the guitar. The guitar is also an important element on stage. To present the multi-layered soundscapes of his songs live, Jan also uses a loop station, a stompbox, a laptop and a harmonizer for polyphonic vocals.
