Tobias Carshey has been exploring the darker sides of life through his music since his early days as a street performer. Even his lighter-sounding melodies carry a deep sense of melancholy and gravity.
The multi-talented singer-songwriter captivates with his unique voice, effortlessly spanning a variety of genres. Equally at home in soft and raw tones, his versatile songwriting even reached the Eurovision Song Contest in 2021 with the song “Amen”, performed by Vincent Bueno for Austria. Back in October 2017, when Tobias had only released one album, SRF 3 honored him as “Best Talent.”
Following this recognition, he released an album, an EP, and several singles. After the pandemic and the birth of his first son, Tobias took a creative break but now returns with his latest album “Through My Eyes“ —a dreamy, dark indie pop project with a subtle nod to the soul of the 1960s.
Recorded far from the digital world, the album’s tracks were captured on tape, giving the songs a raw, analog sound. The tape’s natural hiss and delicate imperfections lend Carshey’s music an incredible depth that touches the heart in almost uncomfortably intense ways.
For those unafraid of raw emotion, Tobias Carshey is an artist you simply must experience live—whether solo or with his band.
