Conny Ochs (DE) @ PEEENG, Zürich

Music to touch your soul quite relies on one essential: changing your perspective, opening up a different view on the world than the one you might have cultivated in your life so far. And the best stories are always the ones that no one told yet. Conny Ochs reads the world around him and envisions signs that may be concealed and hidden to others. The results of his observation he channels into narratives driven by fervour and vulnerability. The new album "Doom Folk" walks new tracks but sometimes they are just running parallel to familiar paths.

Conny is touring since years as a rock'n'roll vagabond throughout the land and various countries, traveling from one show to another, playing the urban prairie as well as rural downtowns. He's a solo artist, mostly on his own but never lonesome. Witnesses of his journey are the albums "Raw Love Songs" (2011), "Black Happy" (2013) and "Future Fables" (2016), illustrating the evolution from a Blues/Folk-infused troubadour to the iconic singer/songwriter he is nowadays. While his early days circulated around the imagery of the lonesome rider, armed with a rugged dreadnaught guitar and a harp and the musical expression being bound to these limitations, since his album "Doom Folk" he already shed light on new ways of expression.
