Deasel Weasel was founded 2009 in Graz and fills the Austrian stages with their unconventional version of Pop-Rock ever since. The 4 musicians - Alex Vader, Chris Jalen, Markus, and Tom S - already gathered some experience in various musical projects, which now influences their music and work at Deasel Weasel. According to the motto "music with no restrictions!", every sound and style that comes along gets quoted, mixed, and internalized, which makes their work hard to categorize. For years they called their musical style "progressive grind-pop", a term created by a fan and friend, which ought to indicate the variety in the bands repertoire. By now they decided to let that term go and to refer to their music as what it is: easy going pop music with experimental rock-tunes. The name "Deasel Weasel" derives from the weasels associated characteristics - being cute and devious at the same time. A second glance into the cheeky, sarcastic lyrics often "treacherously" shows the songs true meaning, whereas just one listening to the music already lets you feel the energy (hence Diesel). In their everyday band life they do it like the weasel and adapt themselves to different circumstances and improvise. In this sense the band played gigs on 5 qm big stages, spontaneously plugged/unplugged, only for 10 min as well as at 5 o'clock in the morning due to sudden delays and changes. Either way, Deasel Weasel remain faithful to their motto: music with no restrictions!
