Cari Cari is Stephanie Widmer (Vocals, Drums & Didgeridoo) and Alexander Koeck (Vocals, Guitars). The duo lived in London, Hamburg and Madrid before releasing their debut album “Anaana”. They were called “the lovechild of The Kills and The xx” (IndieShuffle, US) “with the raw grit of a Cat Power record” (BestBefore, AUS) and “a pinch of Ennio Morricone ” (FM4, AUT). Since their inception, Cari Cari have been tirelessly working to create their own world, carefully crafting everything from their music to their artwork, videos to set design in-house. This meticulous attention to detail has earned the band a loyal following; Rolling Stone Magazine called them ‘the biggest discovery of Primavera Sound Festival’, their die-hard fans sold out 1000+ capacity rooms across Europe and their debut album was praised by the likes of NME, KCRW, Rolling Stone, BBC Radio 1 and many more.
In 2024, Cari Cari shows no signs of slowing down. They’ve just released their new double single, “Farfalla / Schmetterling,” giving fans a glimpse of their upcoming album currently in the works. “Farfalla” floats with dreamy, hippie-like vibes, while “Schmetterling” unleashes the raw, untamed power of their live shows. It’s a snapshot of the duality that defines their music—at once delicate and explosive. With a massive US and European tour on the horizon, Cari Cari is charging ahead full throttle, ready to bring their spellbinding performances to stages across the globe..
