  1. <\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    Who have been some of your favourite artists that you have worked with throughout your career?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Some local groups in Austria like TurboBier or Alkbottle, some do not exist anymore<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Are there any genres of music that you would like to experiment with in the future?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Yes, Americana \u2013 a genre and style new to me as European<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    What was the inspiration behind \u201cGold Is What the Girls Want\u201d?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    I watched women rubbing their noses on the shopping window of a jewelry store. Some go in and when they come out they have the gold \u2013 and the man has a glowing credit card. We have exclusive jewelry stores in Vienna and elegant ladies in there. With a twinkle of an eye I made the lyrics saying that girls may like chocolate and flowers, but what they really want is gold.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    How do you approach writing songs like \u201cGold Is What The Girls Want\u201d while having a global audience in mind?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Everywhere people like gold. Look at India or China. Women like gold as well in the USA. I do not need to think about a global message, my song\u2019s story fits all over the world. And I think people smile about my lyrics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    What was the experience like working with director Heinz Riemer on the music video for \u201cGold Is What The Girls Want\u201d?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Heinz Riemer is a buddy always cracking the whip.
    Haha, joke. My real name is Heinz Riemer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    What has been the proudest moment of your career so far?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Well, I felt quite comfortable when my song reached Nr.1 in EuroIndieMusic \u2013 and WorldIndieMusic charts and also when I received awards at international film festivals (in the category Music Video).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    What is next for ViennaCC?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    The world is full of inspiration, you only have to look and listen. I am collecting ideas. I cannot predict the result, but I think there will be songs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
