Live and act

Kranzelbinder first learned piano, then worked at the age of 14 and switched to the electric bass in the school band. At the age of 15 he began to learn the double bass. During the last school year he took lessons at the Conservatory in Klagenfurt. Kranzelbinder studied first in Vienna, then in Linz, where he completed his studies with Peter Herbert .

Kranzelbinder released an album with his quartet Lukas im Dorf in 2010 (on the Laub label, which he founded with other musicians) . He has been playing with Mario Rom since 2011 in the Trio Interzone , which has since released three albums. His “surf rock opera” Muchogusto was performed for the first time in 2012 at the Carinthian Summer Festival. Since 2014 he has also been part of Expressway Sketches (with Benjamin Schaefer , Max Andrzejewski and Tobias Hoffmann ). In 2015 his jazz adaptation of Jedermann (directed by Georg Schütky) with Christian Reiner premiered. With the specially founded Ensemble Shake Stew , he opened the Saalfelden Jazz Festival in 2016 with great success ; the septet was subsequently regarded as "Austria's most exciting jazz export". In 2018 he curated the SWR New Jazz Meeting , where he performed with the poet Fiston Mwanza Mujila and the musicians Mario Rom, Johannes Schleiermacher , Mona Matbou Riahi , Gregory Dargent and Dave Smith . In 2020, the album Gris Gris was on the quarterly best list of the German Record Critics' Prize .
