Soap&Skin

A torso growing new limbs: The current album "Torso" by Soap&Skin is not just a collection of cover songs, but a musical artwork. In fragile arrangements, the favorite pieces of the voice and sound artist undergo a fairy-tale, very personal transformation that can be as touching as it is bizarre.

In 2026, a special debut concert will take place at the Festspielhaus St. Pölten: With her distinctive voice, gently complemented by piano, other instruments, and electronic sounds, Soap&Skin gives songs by Shirley Bassey, Tom Waits, and David Bowie an aura in which the originals embark on a fascinating tightrope walk between immediate closeness and maximum reinterpretation. The delicate sound art also takes on former chart-toppers like "What’s Up?" by 4 Non Blondes. And rarely has Jim Morrison's psychedelic farewell opus "The End" been heard in such a powerful reinterpretation – sometimes forcefully energetic, sometimes completely fragile.
