Tanzcafé Arlberg - The Sunshine Skiing Music Festival

Thrilling sun dance

Sailor Sailer has lost his heart to Sonnendeck, Bonanza and other open-air raves, but the Tyrolean DJ also feels at home on dark, foggy nights in the Innsbruck club Arche *Ahoi. When he was young, he was drawn to the melancholy of baroque music playing his violin in an ensemble, but what was missing was an even wilder, darker, firmer bass. Sailor Sailer found him with Portishead. He delved deeper and deeper into the world of electronic music and almost fell for it. As a DJ, he has been working in Innsbruck, Berlin and Vienna for years. Some of his productions have appeared there on the label Schönbrunner Perlen.

Go and get it!

The MANDA Trio is dedicated to the groove: jazz groove, hip hop and earthy funk describe the style of the ALL STARS BAND.

Andreas Tentschert studied psychoanalytic education at the University of Innsbruck and jazz piano at the Anton Bruckner University in Linz. He has been teaching jazz piano at the Mozarteum Salzburg for 5 years. Markus Ecklmayr aka Max the Sax guarantees highly energetic saxophone playing and an explosive performance. His experience of playing big stages and interacting with thousands of people has created a unique brand for audiences and his music alike. Florian Kasper comes into play with his RARE grooves as the ideal groove master.

Dance up the good times

The HOT PANTS ROAD CLUB has made a name for itself as a top-class funk and soul act in and outside of Austria. In 2022, the energetic group around singer Andie Gabauer, who were once inspired to found the band by a concert excerpt from James Brown, celebrated their 30th birthday.

There are also cheeky choreographies and spectacular dance routines. On the occasion of their anniversary, the no-frills rhythm section has now released a "Best of Album" and put together a new live show that has it all. "Dance and have a good time" is the message that comes out in unsettled times like these more than good.

Get swingified!

If you don't know MARINA & THE KATS yet, you have missed something and should know the following: Three of the four band members play drums. "The 'Shared Drums' concept doesn't make it any easier, but it makes it fatter," the band says. That's right: That's exactly the M&TK trademark: There is no second time this completely unique sound!

The band, which first took its first steps as a threesome and has since grown into a quartet, has been one of the most exciting and thrilling bands in the country, if not Europe, for years. As for Swing anyway. Anyone who has experienced this rhythmic bundle of energy live has long since become hopelessly addicted to the foursome. If you are still missing this concert experience, you can look forward to a mind-blowing musical moment!
