stephie hacker band



The new project of the young Viennese pianist, singer and composer Stephanie Hacker melts personal feelings with unaffected words and transparent music into a compilation of touching songs. The musician, educated in classical music and jazz, takes influences of these styles and mixes them with pop-sounds and modern grooves – and at the same time leaves much space for improvisation. But the main aspect of her music remains the song itself. In collaboration with the members of her band Andi Tausch (guit), Robert Jukic (b) and Christian Salfellner (dr) – all well-known in the national and international jazz-community – Stephanie Hacker concentrates her emotions onstage in her singing and piano playing.

NYC-Band


In 2012, Stephanie Hacker spent some time in New York City to expose herself to new influences. Inspired by all this great music, exhibitions, architecture, multicultural society and people she wrote new songs. She is preparing for her next album which will feature her new material and three wonderful musicians. Together with Pete McCann (guit), Daniel Fabricatore (b) and Mark Ferber (dr)- integral parts of the New York City jazz scene for many years- she played and recorded music that reflects the evolution that her New York inspiration brought to her sound.
