Trauffer , actually Marc A. Trauffer (born June 4, 1979 in Brienz ) is a Swiss dialect pop singer from the Bernese Oberland .

biography

Trauffer became known as the singer of the Bernese band Airbäg , which produced four chart albums between 1997 and 2005. The band fell apart and after a personal setback due to the failure of his marriage, it was not until 2008 that he started his solo career with his debut album Pallanza . It is named after the place Pallanza on Lake Maggiore in Piedmont, Italy, where he retreated during his crisis.

With the follow-up albums Dr Heimat z'lieb (2010) and Fischer & Jäger (2013), he was able to build on the previous successes. The album Fischer & Jäger achieved gold status. Alpentainer followed in 2014 and was awarded platinum. In 2016, the album Hehrefahne was released , which was awarded double platinum.

In 2009 Marc Trauffer took over his parents' wooden toy factory in Trauffer and has been the owner ever since. At the same time, he was involved in the local council of his home town of Hofstetten near Brienz until mid-2014 and as Vice President of the Ballenberg Open-Air Museum until the beginning of 2015 .

Trauffer is in a relationship; with his ex-wife he has a daughter and a son.
