Pop, Blues & Punchlines

Magdalena Köchl, Edi Jäger, and the musicians Philipp Kopmajer (drums) and Roli Wesp (piano) combine cabaret, soul, and blues into an evening filled with musical and comedic highlights. Köchl, known for her sensual alto voice and stage presence, performs songs like "House of the Rising Sun" or "Jolene" with a raw bluesy touch and powerful high notes—accompanied by Wesp’s elegant piano runs and Kopmajer’s precise rhythm. Her performances, such as the intense soundscape of the classic "House of the Rising Sun," resonate deeply with the audience.

Edi Jäger enhances the program with sharp-witted cabaret that shines through irony and tempo. His parodies, like the sarcastic village politics festival speech, regularly elicit minutes of laughter. As the delighted audience reports, an atmosphere emerges that ranges from heartfelt connection to standing ovations—a night that combines music and comedy at the highest level.
