Melissa Naschenweng & Band - Live

Melissa Naschenweng has developed into one of the most successful and popular artists in the country within just a few years. With her captivating mix of schlager, pop, rock, and folk influences, she fascinates a cross-generational audience of young and old alike, who celebrate the down-to-earth yet modern and open-minded power woman raised in the Lesachtal valley in Carinthia. Melissa Naschenweng loves to play with clichés in her music, break with dusty traditions, and unite seemingly opposing elements in her own contemporary style. Pink leather pants, a pink accordion, Melissa's pink world. For five years, Melissa Naschenweng's charts and success barometer have been clear skies. And for just as many years, she has shown her unique selling point with unwavering authenticity in a business that otherwise struggles without rose-colored glasses. Melissa, just like the country, is the woman. She is who she is. She won't let anyone silence her. Since her childhood, nothing happens for Melissa without her accordion – especially since she has firmly embedded the accordion in rock 'n' roll and shows her audience that women can certainly hold their own against the guys in rustic rock. For those who doubt, let it be known: mountain farmers, or the boys among them, driving tractors, mowing meadows, chopping wood are not just sung clichés, but simply drawn from Melissa's life. Melissa is like the valley. With edges and corners, romantic and wild. Hard and tender.
