Description
KVSAL has been carving out his path in Vienna’s underground music scene since 2015, experimenting with his sound both as part of a collective and as a solo artist. Over the years, he has performed on some of the city’s most recognized stages, including the Donauinselfest (Europe’s largest free open-air festival) and the internationally renowned Impulstanz Festival. In 2022, the multifaceted artist released his debut EP "white fears brown soul", along with a short film-style music video that was featured at the Vienna Shorts Film Festival—an impressive early milestone before a clear artistic identity had even fully emerged.
With the release of the first single "NATEMU නටමු" and its striking visuals—once again selected for the Vienna Shorts Film Festival, just like his 2020 piece "DIES DAS"—KVSAL comes full circle, proving that his work resonates beyond the music scene and into the world of film and visual storytelling.
