  • There has been speculation about this in the media for some time. And now it's a fact: the comeback of Plüsch.
  • Two years ago, singer Ritschi met up with his former band members again: "It sounded great."
  • The band wants to reminisce with a club tour next year.

Ritschi, Simi, Hunzi, Bali and Röschel are back.

The members of the band Plüsch are making a comeback. Many years have passed since they were last active and now the time has come.

With a club tour in spring 2024, they want to reminisce without the pressure of a new album. They want to be on the road together, eat together and enjoy the magic of a live concert.

With "Zuegab", they take to the stage together after eleven years. In November 2021, the members got together once again to make music.

"We only wanted to do it when everyone was really up for it - and it just took eleven years," they say. They didn't have to persuade any of the band members.

The school friends are back

Ritschi, Simi, Hunzi, Bali and Röschel already knew each other at school. Back then, they formed the band "V.I.P." and covered hits by their idols, performed at festivals in the region around Interlaken - and immediately found each other, harmonized with each other.

So they stayed together and reached unimagined heights in the Swiss music scene with Plüsch.

They describe their performance at the Gurtenfestival 2004 as a highlight: "The people, the atmosphere, everything was just right". In general, the period from 2002 to 2004 - "from school band to nationally known" - was a very enjoyable time.

But again, they make it clear that this is just an encore. A new album is not to be expected.
