5/8erl in Ehr’n have become a rare breed: a band that wasn’t assembled and produced to churn out easily digestible musical fast food, but has been working for over 18 years with an open-ended approach and without a predefined aesthetic. The fact that this band still exists is a rejection of ego trips and a declaration of love for pluralism. 

Max Gaier & Robert Slivovsky on lead vocals form a classic dynamic duo, Hanibal Scheutz provides the foundation on bass, Miki Liebermann grooves passionately on guitar, and Clemens Wenger on electric piano is responsible for the combo’s warm sound. 

The studio album *BURN ON!* replaces burnout as a widespread social ailment:
Society is under constant stress, but pushing on until exhaustion is the order of the day. There’s no room for breaks—*BURN ON!* 5/8-tempo tracks turn the tables and, with *BURN ON!*, deliver sound therapy and songs celebrating the wonderful art of doing nothing. Viennese soul serves as a painkiller against the overwhelming daily grind of our times.

Since 2006, the band has toured regularly in Austria, southern Germany, and Switzerland. 5/8erl in Ehr’n have played nearly 1,000 concerts (sic!), won 6 Austrian Amadeus Music Awards in the Jazz/World/Blues category, and released 7 studio albums to date.
