Blending Borders
Blending Borders ist eine 2015 gegründete Band aus Wiener Neustadt (NÖ) um Gitarrist, Sänger und Songwriter Oliver Pichler. Stilistisch lässt sich die Band dem Rock zuordnen, wobei auch Einflüsse aus anderen Genres hörbar sind. So finden sich experimentelle und durchaus auch progressive Klänge in der Musik wieder.

Ein Mix aus Alternative- und Progressive-Rock, der mit eingängigen Melodien, atmosphärischen Klanglandschaften und komplexen Arrangements aufwartet.

ERNST is an indie rock band from Vienna, Austria offering a unique contrast of melancholic introspection and upbeat energy, creating a sound that is both hauntingly beautiful and undeniably catchy. ERNST draws inspiration from a range of genres, from grunge and punk to new wave.
The band consists of Nicole Salomon (vocals/guitar), Dan Courtney (synth/guitar), Ralf Grabuschnig (lead guitar/bass), Elias Marte (bass/keys) and Philipp Demuth (drums), with Elsbeth Reiss regularly joining on violin. They have been playing together since a coincidental meeting in their apartment building in 2021.
Their debut EP, Shard, was released in 2022, and has been praised for its thought-provoking lyrics, strong vocal performance, and innovative instrumentation.
With a focus on creating music that is relatable, honest and challenging, ERNST is a band that is unafraid to explore complex emotions and push the boundaries of their sound.
