Lutz! – The Definition of Brass n' Roll.
How much pressure can a rock band handle? Lutz! delivers the answer. Since their formation in 2019 in Eastern Switzerland, the six-piece has established a genre of its own: Brass n' Roll. This is where the raw energy of rock meets the musical precision of a sharp brass section.
With over 50 shows across Switzerland, Germany, and Austria – including support slots for acts like LaBrassBanda – Lutz! has proven they are not just a backup band, but a high-energy artist act. Their music isn't background noise; it’s a statement.
Lyric-focused songwriting and an uncompromising DIY ethic define their brand: from songwriting and arrangements to the visual concept, everything is created in-house. Following their debut EP "Der Stepptanz des Bären" (2023) and the single "DIY" (2025), their transition to professional studio environments marks the next evolutionary step.
Lutz! leaves the clichés of traditional brass music behind, bringing a modern, powerful interpretation to festival stages and concert halls. No compromises. Just Brass n' Roll.
Since its formation in eastern Switzerland in 2019, the six-piece band has quickly made a name for itself and played more than 50 gigs in Switzerland, Germany and Austria. Highlights to date have included joint shows with well-known acts such as the Fäaschtbänklern, LaBrassBanda and Faber. With musical precision, lyrically conscious texts and a stage presence that seeks closeness to the audience, Lutz! manages to turn evenings into memories.
From songwriting and arrangements to creating merch and artwork – everything is done in-house. Their self-produced debut EP ‘Der Stepptanz des Bären’ (2023) and the single ‘DIY’ (2025) represent a sound that is constantly evolving. In 2025, the band continued on this path for the first time in a professional recording studio.
And the party is far from over. Markus Lutz (vocals, guitar and bass trumpet), Marco Oberholzer (trumpet), Franz Daxinger (bass), Philipp Keller (guitar), Pascal Bösch (drums) and Cedric Gmür (baritone saxophone) are ready to surpass themselves and bring new material and their usual good-humoured rambazamba to festival stages, halls and dimly lit pub corners. So oil your vocal cords and dust off your dancing shoes when you hear: ‘Lutz! is in town!’
