Plankton - Winterthur indie pop band, known for "Die wo nid chönd Tschutte". Back with a new album after a creative break. Dialect, irony & groovy indie pop.
What to expect...
The band had their first performance in 1998 in Winterthur at the Alte Kaserne. The five became really well known throughout Switzerland with the song "Die wo nid chönd Tschutte" from their album Hallo Erde. The video for this was filmed in the Schützenwiese stadium, with Bernard Thurnheer making a guest appearance as commentator.
"Why always make music when everything is different?", ask "Plankton" on their fifth album. After a creative break, the Winterthur natives have realized that they can't do without making music. Even though a lot has changed in their lives and their hometown now has a new face, they are meeting up again in the rehearsal room and working on new songs. Anyone who thinks there is a simple answer to the question "Why music?" is mistaken. That's why the band continues to pursue the question that has haunted them since they first stood in front of an audience almost 25 years ago.
Lyrics in dialect with a good dose of irony combined with mature indie pop: that's groovy nonchalance, danceable and lively. These are sophisticated indie pop arrangements with melodies and punchlines that you can take home with you. The boy band that has fallen out of time with
with their well-guarded sex appeal and fine Winterthur irony develop a charm that is hard to resist.
The concert will only take place in dry weather. All updates in case of changeable weather and general information can be found on our homepage. There are no seat reservations for the show, so come early enough to secure a nice seat.
Our concerts are free and open to all. A collection (bar, card or TWINT) will be made on site.
We rely on the support of our guests so that talented and great artists can perform on the Triebguet stage every summer. We recommend a contribution to the collection of 10 - 20 francs per person. More is always welcome.
