"... The man belongs in the Great "Bavarian Songbook", in the hall of fame of Bavarian songwriters," says Bavarian Radio - and for once, they are absolutely right on all counts. For 20 years now, the man from Bad Reichenhall has been on the road, and somewhere between Bob Dylan, Johnny Cash, and a Bavarian poacher, Söllner plies his trade - singing in the songwriter tradition of American directness, with great musical instinct, and as if freedom-seeking pioneers had returned to the Alps. Söllner's view of life is incorruptible, his vision of the world he wants to live in is a just one, and his anger at those who want to destroy this world and its creatures comes with primal force. "We have forgotten that we are the only species that can choose to change something. We can end misery before misery ends us. I try to believe in the good, even if I don't always succeed and I repeatedly show our hypocrisy in my songs," says Söllner. Nevertheless, or precisely because of this, hope is always the greatest force in his songs; tenderness and love are always stronger than anger or despair. But woe to those who misuse the concept of freedom, or want to curtail Söllner's very own freedom; his directness and bluntness can be merciless, and his accuracy in locating false notes is legendary. So hold on tight, you sensitive souls and conflict-avoiders, here we go. In his language, which doesn't just want to play a little Bavarian, Söllner lives in what and how he says, with all his strength and incredible emphasis. Hans Söllner howls and whispers - shouts and scolds - speaks and tells - laughs and grins - makes you sad or happy - drives you forward and holds you tight. Penetrating - precise - relentless and always in the rhythm of life.
