Garish | Wipfelklang Festival Gföhlerwald

In a time when attention spans are measured in swipe movements and their causes tell a story of certain transience, the things that truly endure are all the more remarkable.

For two and a half decades, Garish have been such a stable anchor. The musical quartet creates its music between hope and escapism, balancing a touch of irony here with a furious dose of melancholy there: always cleverly packaged in lyrics, yet speaking from the soul. Garish has long become a musical institution that has created its own universe, independent of trends and commercial debates. With its own language, its own color, and its own emotionality.

It may have been eight long years since the last regular album "Komm schwarzer Kater," but the time has been anything but quiet and still, filled with side projects, a live album, and a anniversary compilation recorded with colleagues. More than ever, performances and genuine appearances are celebrated and enjoyed. It will be the same in 2025. Garish are not back. They were never gone.
