With the “SOBER DOESN’T SAVE ME TOUR,” Hello Hannes will launch his first headline tour in 2026. Not a smooth restart, not a polished comeback story—but an unvarnished statement about life after the fall. Being sober hasn’t cured him, it’s just made him clearer. The same anger, the same inner conflicts, and the same rebellious energy remain. Only how he deals with them has changed. His new album will be released alongside the tour—marking the most consistent and focused phase of his career to date.
After years of losing himself through drugs and musical silence, Hello Hannes is standing up for himself again. The lifestyle change wasn’t a magical reset, but a long, painful process. The demons haven’t disappeared; the restlessness remains. His songs tell this story: of struggles, insecurity precisely, the feeling of not fitting into this world, and of a self-destructive streak that is no longer acted out, but transformed into honest, uncompromising music.
The “SOBER DOESN’T SAVE ME TOUR” deliberately breaks with the cliché that recovery means a happy ending. Sobriety is not salvation, but a state of awareness – with all its consequences. Hello Hannes shows that you can party, be loud, and live intensely without destroying yourself. The crashout spirit remains palpable, but it now comes with responsibility and a clear vision.
Live, the audience can expect a raw, direct, and cathartic show.
DIY energy meets emotional depth; explosive moments alternate with vulnerable, intimate passages. Between songs, he speaks openly about helplessness, loss of control, and inner struggles – approachable, unfiltered. Visually, the tour oscillates between chaos and clarity: cold, dark aesthetics, raw symbolism, scars, and shattered glass. A
conscious departure from glossy productions.
The “SOBER DOESN’T SAVE ME TOUR” is not a look back at past excesses, nor a glorification of them. It is a space for all those who feel different, who wrestle with their own demons, and who know that healing is not a linear path. A place of genuine community and uncompromising honesty. Hello Hannes represents a new generation of underground artists: loud, emotionally raw, and authentic—without destroying themselves or others.
