Rock from the Rhine Valley
Megawatt was founded by singer Thomas Graf. The band combines classic rock elements with pop structures, which has earned them widespread acceptance on radio and television. Their debut album immediately reached high chart positions and established them as a fixture on the dialect scene.
Approachability as a recipe for success
Megawatt's lyrics often deal with dreams, home and life in rural areas. This focus on content leads to strong identification between the fans and the band. Megawatt eschews artificial distance and cultivates direct contact with its growing fan base.
