Samuel Okkosch spends his summers in Horgen by Lake Zurich, where he produces his music in his living room studio, and his winters in the Engadin as a ski instructor. His music is a colorful mix of alt-country sounds, slacker-rock guitars, Wilco-inspired folk revival, and gentle indie melodies. His lyrics - whether in English, German, Swiss German, or French — tell playful, childlike stories from his life while never losing sight of the complexity of our peculiar existence.
After a four-year hiatus, Samuel's living room is finally brimming with music again in 2025: In January, a compilation album looks back on old demos; in March, the EP "I Brush My Teeth Like I’m Losing a Fight" explores his American roots; and in May, his album "Chloé" tells the personal story of a formative encounter through 14 songs. Together with friends, Samuel brings his playfully adorned song arrangements to the stage — honest and full of energy.
