Vincent Gross

Based in Basel, Switzerland, singer Vincent Gross is part of the German‑language pop wave that brings together chanson and contemporary schlager. First noticed in the mid‑2010s through covers and music competitions in German‑speaking Switzerland, Gross gradually moved from an acoustic style toward songwriting more oriented to mainstream pop, with German lyrics focused on relationships, everyday life and direct emotions. Signed to a German label, he has established himself on stages in Switzerland, Germany and Austria, performing both in intimate settings and on television shows and festivals dedicated to pop and schlager. His debut album Rückenwind was released in 2017, followed by Möwengold in 2018 and Hautnah in 2020, which confirm the melodic, rhythm‑driven direction of his work. Vincent Gross composes and co‑writes part of his repertoire, favors accessible arrangements that mix ballads and danceable tracks, and maintains regular contact with his audience via social media, where he posts acoustic versions, concert excerpts and new songs.
