hank

In the artist's words:

Pop that doesn't fit into any category

hank is 21 years old, comes from Regensburg and represents a new generation of German-language pop acts that deliberately refuse to be pigeonholed. As an artist, producer and songwriter, he creates his own musical world in which indie, rap, catchy pop melodies and electronic synth textures intertwine organically. The result is not a calculated mix of genres, but a sound with a high recognition value: emotional, modern and unmistakably hank.

Over 100 million streams

Even before this new artistic chapter, hank had figures to show that are extraordinary for a 21-year-old: Over 100 million cumulative streams speak a clear language. There is no short-lived hype behind this, but an organically grown momentum - built up through his own productions, his own songwriting and a clear artistic profile.

This is what hank sounds like: emotional, direct, unmistakable

In terms of content, hank strikes a chord with his generation. His songs tell of love, loss, longing, freedom and the desire to live in the moment - not distanced or cerebral, but direct, vivid and approachable. "tattoo" - by far his best-known song - describes toxic attachment with lines that stick with you. The raw, powerful sound of the song has inspired many and earned him a loyal fanbase that extends far beyond Regensburg. "mitternacht" shows love as a place of refuge and emotional richness. "gänsehaut" captures the feeling of being young, feeling everything and not wanting to put anything off until later. hank doesn't explain - he formulates what many feel, but few express so clearly.

hank live: support for Kasi & Antonius and his own shows in 2026

In March and April 2026, he accompanied Kasi & Antonius as support on their German tour and won over new fans night after night. 2026 will finally see his first own shows and selected festivals - including concerts at Alte Mälzerei Regensburg (October 18) and Maschinenhaus Berlin (October 23).
