Stefan Jürgens

As a founding member of the legendary RTL Saturday Night, TATORT and SOKO WIEN/DONAU commissioner, theater actor, and musician with seven solo albums to date, Stefan Jürgens draws confidently and joyfully from his well-filled pots accumulated over more than 30 years in his stage performance. Jürgens offers his audience a constant interplay of highly emotional songs with fantastic lyrics, profound poetry, biting stand-up comedy, and ruthless self-irony.

Love! Is his antidote in an increasingly serious time. Love! And love yourself too! We all have our burdens to bear and want to find our inner peace. Yet the world outside is becoming more opaque and combative. Everything is in flux, and much that seemed taken for granted yesterday is being cast aside. As a 62-year-old white man with a slight tendency towards comfort, Jürgens knows the challenges of breaking old habits. However, when he takes aim at his own Boomer generation through self-ironic excursions into his own biography and critically examines their development from payphones to near-Mars flights, it becomes clear what his mixed calculation of happiness looks like: Not taking oneself too seriously and keeping one's ego in check! Because when it comes to true masculinity, Jürgens has very distinct views in the age of narcissists and toxic muscle clowns.

Here stands a person on stage who is very familiar with the lows of daily existence yet does not shy away from the grandest emotions. His songs are anthems to life, touching and enticing his audience towards optimism and zest for life. He is accompanied by his guitarist Matthias Kahra, with whom he shares more than 20 years of musical journey, adding a virtuosic and pulsating heartbeat to the pure arrangements. Look forward to the successful tours "what counts."
