Paraphon

With over 45 gigs in recent years at the likes of Grillentanz festival, Quellrock Openair or the iconic Grabenhalle in St. Gallen, Paraphon are one of the most exciting new live acts in Switzerland. The synth-pop duo are slowly playing their way into the minds of listeners, awakening nostalgic feelings and the desire to dance. Paraphon’s retro sound, created and performed on various synthesizers, drum machines and an electric guitar, does not only convince on stage, but also on record: With 3 EPs and 1 album since 2021 they have kept their listeners busy. Their releases blend striking synthesizer sounds, rhythmic guitars, straight beats and floating, slightly melancholic vocal melodies.

Paraphon will have you dance your feet off – the synthesizers stand out as their trademark, while funky guitars and catchy basslines guarantee that nobody’s standing still.
