Hubert von Goisern und die Alpinkatzen

Hubert von Goisern und die Alpinkatzen emerged as a pivotal force in the world of Alpine folk music, ingeniously merging traditional folk with modern rock and pop elements. Hailing from Austria, the group was fronted by Hubert von Goisern, born Hubert Achleitner, who became widely recognized for his skillful accordion play and innovative approach to the music of his homeland. The band came to prominence in the early 1990s, at a time when there was a surge of interest in world music, and they played a key role in reviving and reimagining the folk genre for a modern audience.

With albums like "Aufgeigen statt niederschiaßen" and live performances captured in "Wia die Zeit vergeht - Live," Hubert von Goisern und die Alpinkatzen drew international attention. Their music often featured a mix of yodeling, traditional instruments, and rock music sensibilities, creating a unique and memorable sound. The band's willingness to experiment with different genres made them stand out, and the release of "Omunduntn" demonstrated their capacity to juxtapose earthy, local sounds with broader, universal musical trends. Although the band disbanded in the late '90s, their impact on the Alpine music scene continues to be felt through Hubert von Goisern's continued career and the genre's ongoing evolution.
