About

Born in 1961 in Switzerland, Franz Treichler is a very eclectic musician. He is the founder member and singer of « The Young Gods », an electronic rock band that exists since 37 years. Many international tours and an avant-garde sound production have made « The Young Gods » a reference in the musical world. You can hear their music in Hollywood productions, underground short movies, theatre pieces or in the most unexpected places : they have designed together with anthropologue Jeremy Narby a sonic conference called « Amazonia Ambient Project ». Parallelly to his work with « The Young Gods », Franz Treichler has collaborated 7 years with Gilles Jobin’s contemporary dance company, produced and remixed many international bands, performed with visual artists, soundtracked live 1920’s experimental movies and recorded indigenous people in Amazonia. . Franz Treichler was the Winner of the Swiss Grand Award for Music in 2014.

In der Schweiz ist Abgabe und der Verkauf von Bier, Wein und Apfelwein an Personen unter 16 Jahren verboten, für Liköre und Spirituosen gilt ein Mindestalter von 18 Jahren.
