Fuffifufzich - Feel zu spät

When Fuffifufzich performed for the first time in 2021 and the Volksbühne sold out within minutes, some fans defied gravity. And what applies to outdoor swimming pools at night also applies to concerts: when people climb over fences to get in, everything that follows is etched into their cerebrum - and the soundtrack into their collective memory.

Fuffifufzich's repertoire - at that time still without a label or management - comprised four songs. Fuffifufzich simply sang them twice and the audience sang every line twice. Particularly lyrically confident: "Hello 110, is that the Po Police? I want to press charges for heartbreak". The debut hit Heartbreakerei feat. Magic Island: 1.6 million views on Spotify.

Fuffifufzich can neither be pinned down to a language nor to a genre. It's a bit like five browser tabs merged into one: rap murmurs from one, Falco from another and then Vicky Leandros nestles in your ear. Or was that Paff Meisi? Perhaps it was dreamy, steamy synthepop that sometimes seeps in spherically and sometimes is cloud pop, sometimes whispers under the comforter or screams from the scaffolding. Fuffifufzich sings and talks, sometimes dada, sometimes gaga, because life is too important to always take it seriously. Especially when it comes to Fuffifufzich's area of expertise: love.

A lot has happened since the single Heartbreakerei: an album of the same name, two sold-out tours. Fuffifufzich performed at Fusion, played the Festsaal Kreuzberg to capacity and the Kulturbrauerei. Soon the lyrics appeared in school toilets, soon on suburban trains. They were pricked under faithful skin and printed in novels. Fuffi, as her fans call her, was a guest on the Zeitmagazin podcast and curated an evening on radioeins. In 2023, the Pop-Kultur-Festival Berlin commissioned a commissioned work and Fuffifufzich, because why not, a string ensemble. Fuffifufzich then shot a video for the Reeperbahnfestival COLLIDE project in front of the largest LED screen in Europe. Wrong, there were three of them!

However, legends surround the person behind the artist. According to Musikexpress, Fuffifufzich was born in 2018 with sunglasses on her face. If you ask Fuffi herself, she says: "Fuffifufzich is an Italo-Western and a snowy street in Berlin, she's a little mouse and a queen." Fuffifufzich writes her own lyrics and produces the songs together with Johannes Aue. On stage, he hypnotizes behind the keyboard and to his left: Laura Landergott, who plays the bass time after time as if she were about to bring it to life.
