The Yellow Bags are a Yellow T(h)rash Metal Band located around Grieskirchen, Upper Austria. With our energy fueled Music we' re trying to conquer the world Yellow Style.
The Yellow Bags were originally founded in 2012 by Christoph "Eichi" Eichlehner, "Fragile", Hubert "Hupi" Peham and Hannes "Mühli" Mühlböck simply to have fun and make some Music. After some years a few Line-Up changes occured and we, the Yellow Bags took things more seriously, making a shift from a Fun-Cover Band to writing our own, full standalone songs. We are now five Members hungry for making music and conquer the world, with the last remaining founding Member Eichi on the bass guitar. So our first Single "Recycling Day" was released in Oct. 2018, and quite a few are still to come.
So the Yellow Bags music style is pretty hard to categorize, but we as a band always said it would be Yellow T(h)rash Metal. We would categorize our Music as Thrash Metal with melodic, modern and hard rock influnces. The "h" T(h)rash occurs (or not...) because Trash and Recycling are a Theme covered in some of our songs mostly in a funny way. Originally Yellow Bag means in German (or Austrian) "Gelber Sack", meaning a palstic bag in which we Austrians put our plastic trash in it. So all in all we are the Yellow ( T(r)ash) Bags singing equally about funny themes and serious ones in a big variety of songs.
Christoph "Eichi" Eichlehner - Bass Guitar
Alexander "Alex" Zach - Drums
Kajetan "Keitsche" Zauner - Guitar
Michael "Michi" Bernecker - Guitar
Markus "Bierni" Biermair
On the Bass the one and only "Eichi". He and Alex are the men with the groove, building the founding of every Yellow Bag Song, especially contributing for yellow lyrics.
Since there is no true single-lead guitarplayer in the Yellow Line-Up, Michael shares this spot and the solos with Keitsche. Never the less he is a true Ripper on the guitar.
Most of the Yellow Sound comes from his handcrafting and songwriting, he shares the spot for Lead-Guitar playing with Michi and is never afraid to shred off some solos or riffs.
Building the rythm foundation with Eichi, Alex is the master on the drums and is always good for an insane fill at some points
Vocalist with a ton of heart and an unbearable drive to empower every lyric and Punchline he touches with his magic voice.
