Austrian chanteuse with hypnotic voice and exquisite piano playing.

 
“'Lovetune For Vacuum' was one of the finest albums of ‘09 … Her piano style is staggeringly rich: her voice glides effortlessly from nagging Cat Power to ethereal Dead Can Dance-heights and back.” (Humo)
“One of the most idiosyncratic debuts of recent years. Soap&Skin would seem to hail from a parallel pop-universe that brought us previous greats like Kate Bush and Antony & The Johnsons.” (De Volkskrant)

All was quiet for a while last year around Soap&Skin or: the alter-ego of young Austrian Anja Plaschg. Debut ‘Lovetune For Vacuum’ already dates from ’09 but her concert in AB in ’10  – that, due to demand, moved from the AB Box to the bigger AB Flex – is still hanging in the air. In the meantime she could be heard on the latest Apparat album ‘The Devil’s Walk’ and she acted in the film ‘Stillleben’. February 2012 will see the release of her new work in the form of a ‘maximum EP’.

Support-act will be A Thousand Fuegos. We don't know much about this Austrian. He was invited by Soap&Skin and likes to keep his electronica marbled pop to 98bpm. He cites Arthur Russell, hitney wouston (sic), Alan Vega, Prince, Bill Callahan and Agent Cooper as influences.

Ik ga helemaal akkoord met de recensie die de Knack publiceerde! Bij momenten een knap optreden dat helaas soms gebukt ging onder overacting.

Ola, de wolf gaf niet thuis bij deze gig, maar het verslag van DM spreekt tot de verbeelding: één van de meest deprimerende, maar ook meest beklemmende concerten van het jaar!

Quelle artiste !!! Pas de communication avec le public mais cela ne me dérange pas (marre des artistes qui demandent aux gens de taper dans leurs mains pdt tout le concert). Fantastiques versions de 'Voyage Voyage' et 'The End' des Doors et même de the Kelly Family. Enfin des covers 'originales'. Moins de théatralité que lors de son précédent passage à l'AB et aussi bcp plus de présence notamment lors des morceaux chantés sans piano.

Ik volg ongeveer de mening van voidy. Een vd betere concerten die ik gezien heb - werkelijk onbeschrijfbaar. Soms had ik wel heimwee nr de meer intiemere concerten die ze als solo-artiest gaf id Botanique. Blij dat ik m'n oordoppen in had..geluid was perfect!

Meest bevreemdende en beangstigende optreden van de laatste jaren. Minpunten: het vreemde gedrag van Anja Plaschg lijkt nogal gecultiveerd. En het optreden was met momenten veel te luid, waardoor het soms overkwam als herrie. Vond de vorige passage eerlijk gezegd een stuk straffer.
