Elisabeth Lohninger Band

This isn’t your run-of-the-mill jazz.

Elisabeth Lohninger shies away from neither stylistic tightrope walks nor musical taboos. With her velvety-dark alto voice, she remains soulful and subtle. And suddenly, even the most familiar Queen songs sound like you’re hearing them for the first time.

Together with her kindred spirit, pianist Walter Fischbacher, Lohninger turns Queen classics on their head: from anthemic evergreens like “We Are the Champions” to nearly forgotten gems like “Cool Cat.”

Everything is reimagined, stripped down to the essentials, and tailored to her voice and expression. What remains is nothing less than a musical arc spanning intimacy and euphoria.
