Lucky Wuthrich the Swiss who crosses borders

When the 27-year-old from Thun picks up his guitar strings and lends his songs an almost physically palpable urgency with this extraordinary, soul-soaked voice, coupled with an emotionality that probably originates somewhere deep behind his ribs, then it becomes clear to everyone: Lucky Wüthrich is a thoroughly honest, authentic and highly talented musician. Whether he is singing about his broken heart or his love of music, whether he is sharing the fate of friends, he touches us with his blunt, honest way of describing his world. His love of American music, its history and performers, who have shaped and changed today's music forever, remains unmistakable.

After the first successful tour with the debut album 'Steady', during which 80 concerts were played throughout Switzerland, he will be on the road with his new album "MY KIND OF MUSIC" from February 16, 2024.

"Blues is not something where you play the clown," says Philipp Fankhauser. "It's terribly serious music that's insanely fun to play." The authenticity, the honesty, the respect: Lucky Wüthrich has it all. "In the last 30 years, I've never heard anyone in Switzerland who can play and sing the blues like him!" says Fankhauser.

"It's fair to say that the Bernese bluesman Lucky Wüthrich has brought sensuality back to the blues. Not only is the gentleman with the rascally face one of the greatest guitarists in this country, he also writes his own songs and boasts a voice that digs so much deeper than the usual cotton picker-grater voice imitations that are otherwise on the market." Ane Hebeisen | der Bund.

"Such conviction, uncompromisingness and willingness to take risks is rare in Switzerland. But not so much talent either. Rarely has a young voice had so much soul, a young guitarist so much maturity and elegance as the juvenile milk face from Thun." Stefan Künzli | Aargauer Zeitung.
