Alpenbarbie [CD]

Melissa Naschenweng has long been a megastar in her native Austria and has become one of the country's most successful and popular artists in just a few years. With her rousing mix of pop, rock and folk influences, she fascinates a cross-generational audience of young and old, who celebrate the power woman who grew up in Carinthia's Lesachtal valley for her down-to-earth yet modern, open-minded style.

Melissa Naschenweng loves to play with clichés in her music, to break with outdated traditions and to unite apparent opposites in her very own contemporary style. On her new album "Alpenbarbie", the likeable musician once again combines grounded closeness to nature and Alpine idylls with current topics in an inimitable way. Sometimes tongue-in-cheek and ironic, sometimes emotional and touching, sometimes quick-witted and combative - but always relentlessly honest and direct.
