Schräg (schreag)- slightly bent, not square.

The Schrägged Out Band was born out of weekly sessions held at the infamous Café Schräg in Vienna. The sessions started with just Gernot Feldner and Lionel wanting to have a place to get together and bang through some songs, simply for the fun of it. Café Schräg had a piano, one that was pulled from a garbage pile but hey ...

After a few weeks of sessions with Gernot and Lionel schrägging about on their own, they started inviting other players to join in. Some players came once and never again (usually due to an indiscretion on Lionel’s part), some came once and kept coming back to get a little more schrägged out. Over the weeks the group slowly gathered, kinda like dust under the bed. By the end of the first six months of sessions they had accumulated the players that are on the CD “Definitely Schrägged”, like minded, schrägged folks who enjoyed the distraction of ambling through the songs.

The sessions came to a floundering end when some music critic of a neighbour to Café Schräg started calling the police and complaining they were too loud. The Cafe was fined a couple times, they tried playing without the tuba and without the cajon but the police still came. So they, sadly, had to end the sessions. All satisfying escapes must come to an end they say.

"The weekly sessions at Schräg will be missed. But... the band keeps schrägging on."
