2nd Love Tour 2026

When Global Kryner presented their first CD in 2004, the music world was turned upside down. It was love at first sight. The idea was as simple as it was brilliant: take the legendary Oberkrainer sound (Alpine brass folk style) of Slavko Avsenik, merge it with world hits, add a pinch of jazz and plenty of musical wit, and the recipe is complete. The Süddeutsche Zeitung was ecstatic and even spoke of a “jack-of-all-trades” when it comes to music. And with “verkrynern” (to krynerize), a new verb was created on top of that.

What followed was a ride through all radio and TV formats rarely seen before. Hundreds of concerts in Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Benelux, France, Italy, Slovenia, Croatia, Serbia, Ukraine and all the way to Mexico. After hot and quite demanding years of touring life, the band bid farewell to the stage in 2013.

But the love never died. On the contrary. Now comes: Global Kryner “2nd Love”!

Already in summer 2024, Global Kryner, led by music cabaret artist and clarinetist Christof Spörk and Oberkrainer accordion veteran Anton Sauprügl, decided to make a fresh start. Trombonist and neo-fish farmer Martin Temmel didn’t need to be asked twice. Markus Pechmann, now one of the country’s most sought-after jazz trumpeters, brought in singer Miriam Kulmer, a veritable vocal marvel. Also newly joining the band is “Mister Groove,” jazz guitarist and songwriter Andreas Haidecker.

But beware: there will be no rehashing of old hits. The band is meticulously preparing for its comeback. New typical “krynerizations” must be included, yes, of course! But this time there will also be originally composed songs to hear. One can be excited.

Everything prepared with much love, just not for the first time, but rather “2nd Love”!

Miriam Kulmer

From the very first song in the studio, Miriam managed to move the entire band to tears with her voice alone with its deeply felt lightness and casual swinging profundity seem to come from another planet; and it probably bears her name.

Markus Pechmann

Back in 2007, Thomas Gansch said: if you’re looking for a really killer trumpet player, call Pechi. Who? Markus Pechmann. Luckily, Christof calls Markus and falls in love at first tone. And Anton too, by the way. Only the chosen few have this much feeling.

Anton Sauprügl

Elder statesman of Global Kryner since 2003. If Global Kryner were a republic, he would probably be the president. Through him, with him and in him arise the most beautiful moments in the band. Toni is classic triple A: incredible accordionist, polished arranger and humble go-getter.

Christof Spörk

Actually a cabaret artist. But probably only because that also starts with C, like clarinet. Curiously, for the founder of Global Kryner, the sounds of the Global Kryner sound still work like a mood-enhancing drug that makes his corazón (heart) dance salsa.

Andreas Haidecker

He is the new global guitarrero. Love at first sight once again! A grounded jazz player who also masters the new Viennese song and pretty much everything in between. As brilliantly as he can accompany and sing relaxed lyrics (with “Andymen”), he swings the Framus guitar to Kryner music just as masterfully.

Martin Temmel

Joined the band in 2008 like Pechi and, with his Upper Styrian straightforwardness and deeply felt musicality, blew Global Kryner all the way to Mexico City. He only puts down his trombone when he has to feed his catfish. If Global Kryner were a monarchy, he would be the “Prince of Wels”.
