Kretscheks Oberkrainer Musikanten is an ensemble whose roots lie in the rich tradition of Oberkrainer music, a style that originates from Slovenia and is widely popular across the Alpine and Central European region. Their name pays homage to this genre, "Oberkrainer" being a German term referring to the origins of this music in the Upper Carniolan region of Slovenia, while "Musikanten" simply denotes musicians.

With a sound that embodies the lively spirit and melodic charm of Oberkrainer music, Kretscheks Oberkrainer Musikanten have established themselves as a group devoted to invigorating audiences with their upbeat tunes. Their recent releases such as "Für gute Laune" (For Good Mood), "Alles fährt gern nach Oberkrain" (Everyone Loves to Go to Upper Carniola), "Musik ist Medizin" (Music is Medicine), "Hallo Freunde wir begrüssen euch!" (Hello Friends, We Greet You!), and "Jeden Tag ein Grund zum Feiern" (Every Day a Reason to Celebrate) showcase their commitment to creating music that promotes joy, celebration, and a sense of community. These titles together paint a picture of a band that revels in the daily joys of life and the healing power of music, while also honoring their cultural heritage through their sound and style.
