After two sold-out headlining tours, festival gigs at Donauinselfest and CSD Cologne and with many new releases in her luggage, NESS is going on a big "LEBEN ÜBERLEBEN" tour through Germany, Austria and Switzerland in November 2025. Her new EP, which fans have been eagerly awaiting, will be released before the tour!
With over 2.3 million monthly listeners on Spotify, NESS is one of the most streamed artists in Austria. The 20-year-old singer-songwriter is also no longer an insider tip on social media - over 177,000 followers on Instagram and 288,000 on TikTok accompany her career, which has taken her from newcomer to the relevant voice of her generation in just a few years. In May 2025, NESS teamed up with Kontra K and Unheilig to land the top 5 hit "Geboren um zu leben" , which entered the German singles charts at number 4 - further proof of her relevance in the German-speaking music scene.
The next milestone in her career is now the "LEBEN ÜBERLEBEN" tour 2025 - the tour title refers to her single of the same name, "Leben überleben", which was released at the end of June. The sound is emotional and direct - typically NESS: honest, clear and approachable. The song's message is personal: NESS wrote it for a close friend who is currently going through a very difficult phase. Her message is clear: "You're not alone. It will get better." With the track, NESS addresses people who are acutely struggling with mental or physical challenges - and at the same time sends a clear signal for more solidarity in difficult times.
"Let's survive our lives together, we've come way too far to turn back " - this line from the chorus sums up the feeling of the track. It's about persevering, carrying on, supporting each other. But "Leben überleben" is not just a song for individuals - it also has a social dimension. In a world characterized by conflicts, crises and digitalization, NESS reminds us that we can only get through emotional lows together and sets an example for more togetherness, for empathy and for not losing sight of each other - especially at a time when many things seem to be drifting apart. This attitude runs through her entire oeuvre - musically and personally.
NESS' live shows are powerful, emotional - and full of tangible closeness to the audience. Her new live arrangements bring more pressure to the stage - making the songs seem even more direct and get noticeably deeper under the skin live. The atmosphere is intense and authentic - anyone who experiences them live will take goosebumps home with them.
In November 2025, NESS will embark on a major headlining tour through Austria, Germany and Switzerland and, with the"LEBEN ÜBERLEBEN" Tour 2025, invites their community to continue on this path together - loud, honest and close.
