About Kunz

KUNZ is back! As "Stadt Land Fluss Poet," the award-winning Lucerne dialect musician presents eleven brand-new songs. Whether sparsely instrumented ballads or driving pop anthems, they are all declarations of love for existence.

The father of four isn't quite sure how he found the time to record his seventh studio album: "It just happened, so to speak," says KUNZ with a laugh. And perhaps that's precisely why "Stadt Land Fluss Poet" is such a success: because it comes from someone who is right in the middle of life.

Here, someone urges us to embrace beauty: "S Glöck, das isch flöchtig, umarms, wenns du hesch!" (The bell is ringing, embrace it if you have it!) The master of dialect folk music looks 99 years ahead and 99 years back. "Even back then, people had the feeling that the world was coming to an end," says KUNZ. "If I can give people a little hope and encourage them to remain confident, then that's good."
