Ignaz Tschinön & Alpkan

Those who don't know ALPKAN have missed out. The band from Perg stands for new folk music that unleashes a variety of rhythms from the breadth of its sound between the Alps and the Balkans. These rhythms go straight to the heart and legs. Ignaz Tschinön is one of the most versatile musicians of his generation: a singer, multi-instrumentalist, and storyteller with a keen sense for catchy melodies and pointed lyrics. With his song "Spompanadln," he delivers a musical snapshot that uniquely combines humor, everyday poetry, and musical skill. "Spompanadln" is a winking commentary on all the little distractions, excuses, and lovable quirks that shape our daily lives. Tschinön wraps these observations in a charming mix of pop, folk, and Austrian song tradition—carried by his distinctive voice and a warm, acoustic sound. Whether it's guitar, mandolin, or percussion: the multi-instrumentalist builds his soundscape layer by layer, without losing the lightness that makes his music so immediately accessible. With fine humor, musical sophistication, and a touch of self-irony, Ignaz Tschinön shows that "Spompanadln" can be more than just a song title; it can be a way of life—a loving wink to all who know that it’s the little quirks that make life interesting. A title that lingers. An artist who touches.
