BIOGRAPHY
The songs of Martin Spengler & die foischn Wiener*innen do many things: they dance, they cheer and jeer, they flatter and batter, rant and rave. They heat and they hurt. And what’s more and most of all: they surprise. Music of the world translated to the sound of Vienna, the art of soulful singer-songwriting that has transcended the stilistic borders between the Wienerlied, Blues, Jazz, Pop, Waltz and Bossa Nova. Music that – much like Jazz and its offspring – has its roots in the 19th century, as heard in the Blues of Franz Schubert, to name but one of many examples.
It is fragile as well as frail and often groovy as hell, giving it up for life and love. At times comedic, at other times singing its own praise, yet never sloppy or snorty. Martin Spengler & die foischn Wiener*innen celebrate the brilliance of language and its elaborate subtlety by putting it into song – Viennese World Music at its best.
