With around 40 million streams and sold-out shows, Naked Cameo has long been one of the most exciting indie acts in Austria. The trio launched their career with their debut single "Luddite": reaching number 1 on the Viral Charts in Austria, top 6 in Germany, nominations for the Music Moves Europe Talent Awards, and performances at festivals such as Reeperbahn, Donauinselfest, FM4 Frequency Festival, and Eurosonic Noorderslag. What began in their parents' basement has gradually evolved. Lukas Maletzky, Patrick Pillichshammer, and Maria Solberger have been making music together since their youth. They are not a TikTok creation, but a band in the classic sense: three personalities who have built a steadily growing fanbase over the years. Returning to their roots – indie, rock, and pop – they create music that lasts. For the first time, everything is independent and without contracts.
In a time when everything must happen instantly, Naked Cameo prioritizes time and quality over quantity. An album every year? Unthinkable. Music arises from friction, doubts, and patience. The path to this is tough.
2026 marks a new chapter. This time, the new album took three years to complete. "Phase To Phase" will be released on May 29, 2026. Characterized by guitar sounds and long harmonic sequences that seamlessly blend into the melody, while everything around it forms a strong, contrasting foundation. "Phase To Phase" will initially be available exclusively on Bandcamp and on vinyl. A bold financial step with a middle finger to certain streaming platforms.
Live, there is pure honesty and energy: sweat, pressure, and crunch instead of polished staging. Guitars meet driving drums and raw synths, close to the audience, without a safety distance. Each show becomes an intense moment between the band and the crowd.

Lukas Maletzky – vocals, guitar
