Falschgeld-Band

In the artist's words:

Falschgeld are young, from Munich and make dirty indie pop rock with German lyrics, stylistically somewhere between TonSteineScherben and the early Strokes, Wanda and AnnenMayKantereit.

The most solid half-strength riot! high fun factor! no consideration for losses!

The punky attitude of the four pop louts, who have been making music together since childhood and deliver a correspondingly powerful performance, contrasts with the profound and smart lyrics of frontman Jona Volkmann (who many people now know from the movies, including most recently in Sönke Wortmann's "Der Spitzname").

Following their sensational debut album "Menschen wie wir" (produced by Franz Ferdinand guitarist Nick McCarthy), the band released their second album "Flügge werden" on February 13, 2026. Together with producer luminary Moses Schneider (AnnenMayKantereit, Beatsteaks, K.I.Z, Tocotronic...), they created songs that tell exactly that: about growing up in troubled times, while the world seems to be coming apart at the seams. Zeitgeist and coming of age meet pleasantly honest indie pop rock without frills - but with an even higher fun factor.
