Indie rock from East Tyrol: Eva Hopfgartner makes feelings glow!
Kufstein, Österreich - An exciting news from the music scene: The five-member band Koan Akku has come together to create indie-rocky sounds from the Tyrolean districts Landeck, Lienz, Kufstein and Upper Austria. The talented musicians were founded in the Tyrolean student home in Vienna, and now they are about to publish. Her debut single "Cooling" will appear on June 13, 2025 and addresses the diverse emotions after the decay of intensive relationships - from loss of control to separation pain. The lyrical highlight, which should probably appeal to many listeners, reads: "If it burns, the gluat follows, circulation what iaez hesitudes".
Because the band around Eva Hopfgartner, who lists the tones on the piano and vocals, has planned a lot on the musical parquet, the first EP with the title "From flames in the light" is already in the starting blocks. This is expected in autumn 2025 and promises a musical-visual journey through pain, change and healing, divided into the four elements of fire, water, air and earth. The influence of Lake Neusiedl is remarkable on the creative work of the band.

The impressive Art Nouveau buildings are also very popular, which are more represented with over 800 copies than in any other city in the world. Here you meet tight cobblestone streets, old merchant houses such as the Haus der Schwarzhärter and the magnificent town hall square, where the newly reconstructed town hall can be found.
