Otto Göttler began playing the zither at the age of 32 and took part in various musical groups. A year later he learned to play the Styrian harmonica . The Bavarian and Tyrolean folk music with the earthy, simple mental attitude and the mischievous, edgy joke as well as the tradition of the folk and bailiff singers to meet the authorities with defiant skepticism have had a major influence on him. The Gstanzl culture, the songs of Kraudn Sepp , the cheeky, subtle joke and the direct contact with the audience of the pub music shaped him.
