Pippa

Pippa was nominated for the Austrian Amadeus Music Award 2024 for Best Songwriter for “Alles Ok”, a single from her successful third studio album “Blick”. The fact that Pippa is not satisfied with a straightforward life in the comfort zone is now proven once again by the artist in a new creative phase, which was heralded by the single “Nichts Tun”, released in May 2024. “Nichts Tun” is an anti-anthem and ode to everything that has no place in our meritocracy. Pippa shovels free a taboo whose existence can make you so tired – resting. In the other songs on her fourth studio album “Dreams on Cement”, which will be released on March 28, 2025, Pippa stomps just as light-footedly on slaying norms and a path that leads to a realization that raises new questions: “Curiosity is a strange animal. It eats out of your hand and then throws up on you.”

– Album: “Dreams on Cement” –

PIPPA’s fourth studio album “Träume auf Zement” (RAIN, 28.03.2025) lies somewhere between the fields of a coming-of-age film bathed in milky sunlight and Jacques Tati’s merciless concrete landscapes. However, the contrast between the cinematic dreaminess and the gloomy urban desert does not envelop the album’s narrative without remaining unquestioned. The dream can become a nightmare and cement the necessary grounding when one is in danger of sinking into dark fantasies. Melodic lightness and cheeky lines turn the thoughtful lyrics into a danceable album that tells of the desire to swim against the current, even if it can be quite exhausting. Because even in an age in which a lot is already possible, freedoms have been won and discourses are being voiced that were taboo not so long ago, the space carved out of expectations and norms is sometimes quite narrow. But PIPPA is not satisfied with a straightforward life in the comfort zone. She wants to breathe, to experience pure emotions. The search for these forms a path through the metropolitan cement.
