The Austrian band Wanda has built up a stable fan base in German-speaking countries beyond the country’s borders. The new album will be out in a few days. But now the band has to cope with a bitter loss.
The longtime keyboarder of the Austrian band Wanda, Christian Hummer, is dead. The musician died after a long, serious illness, his four colleagues said on the group’s official Instagram and Facebook pages. The sad news to fans came just four days before Wanda’s new studio album was released.
The indie rock band Wanda, known for songs like “Bologna” or “Bussi Baby”, was founded ten years ago and has since established itself as one of the most famous Austrian acts in Germany and Switzerland.
“There are no words that can do justice to this loss,” the band wrote of Hummer’s death. “Christian was a gifted musician and a wonderful person. His enthusiasm for music and his devotion to people made him so endearing.”
