FEIA! – Bavarian World Music Reimagined

FEIA! stands for Bavarian world music—or, depending on your perspective, modern Bavarian folk with a distinctive, signature sound. The project brings together four seasoned musicians, each contributing their unique musical roots to create a vibrant and cohesive sonic experience.
Frontman Bernie Maisberger, renowned as a singer-songwriter from Giesing and long-time vocalist of the hardfolk band IRXN, infuses the music with narrative depth and expressive power. Alongside him, “Da Wiggal” from Moosburg, former frontman of the electro-reggae-ska outfit Zwoastoa, adds rhythmic diversity and high-energy stage presence. The ensemble is further enriched by Jens Ohly, whose delicate bass lines have shaped the sound of the Werner Schmidbauer Band, and Susan K., whose vocals, groove, and ukulele bring warmth and nuance to the group’s sound.
The name FEIA! captures the essence of the band: it represents both fire and celebration. Both qualities are reflected in their music and performances—passionate, infectious, and full of life. The band combines intelligent, imaginative lyrics with catchy melodies, creating an uplifting and joyful experience that invites audiences to sing, dance, and pause in appreciation.
Their songs move fluidly between cheerful and contemplative, anarchic and reflective—music for both heart and mind that also gets your body moving.

Keep the FEIA! burning.
