“Halo” (halo) with singer Pia Maria prevailed with the jury, audience and sold songs once morest such tough competition as “Die Sunn und di” (Pizzera & Jaus) and “Von dir ein Tattoo” (Josh).
Before the award ceremony, LUM!X told the OÖ Nachrichten: “It’s crazy that the boy from Rohrbach is now getting this award.” His thanks go to his parents, “who had my back. They always said, let’s do it for once, regardless of whether it works out or not.” For the composer and DJ, who also won the Electronic/Dance category with Halo, this award is a balm for the musicians’ wounds suffered on May 10, 2022. Back then, LUM!X and Pia Maria finished third to last in the semi-finals of the Eurovision Song Contest.
A few days in Rohrbach
Luca Michlmayr spends the next few days in his home town before appearing as a DJ in Holland, Spain and France. On May 12, Michlmayr, whose works have already been streamed around two billion times, will present a new song that he composed in his studio in Milan.

The Poxrucker Sisters, who performed the song “Na” together with Katharina Strasser in the Volkstheater, were also very happy. The trio from the Mühlviertel won the category “Songwriter of the Year” for their contemporary, socially critical song “Sie”. Before the success, Stefanie Poxrucker was still cautious: “Our tactic is not to come with too high expectations and then to be all the happier when it works.” A tactic that has paid off.
On the other hand, the other Upper Austrian bands nominated in the four main categories went away empty-handed. Bilderbuch (category album of the year with “Yellow is the field”) and Folkshilfe (live act of the year). Both categories went to Wanda (“Wanda” album).
The equally modest and brilliant jazz musician Karl Ratzer received the Amadeus for his life’s work.
