THE BAND

FIFTEEN YEARS AND MORE

Second Function experienced impressive moments during their travels across Europe, Japan, and Russia, as well as during recording studio sessions in the United Kingdom, Switzerland, and Germany. “Individuals” was released in 2018, showcasing the band’s musical evolution from divergent views to shared convictions. With their EP “Feed Yourself” in 2016, the Swiss rockers extensively toured Europe, opening for acts like Life of Agony (USA) and performing with bands such as Biffy Clyro (UK), Dog Eat Dog (USA), and Arcane Roots (UK). With over 300 concerts, including the Vans OFF the WALL Tour and the Greenfield Festival, they emphasize their insatiable hunger for music.

Renowned producers like Luk Zimmermann and John Mitchell worked on their albums “Time Stops Running” and “Dry, Crisp & Bittersweet.” The band embodies conviction, persistence, fun, and passion. During the COVID-19 hiatus, the band had to suspend their concerts. Nevertheless, they continued to write and record new songs. In early 2023, marking the 15th anniversary of their debut album “Time Stops Running,” the three musicians decided to reunite with their original producer, Luk Zimmermann. As if no time had passed, they met with him in his studio in Bern to record new songs.

“The Driveway” was released in 2023 as the first single, marking the beginning of a creative phase that played into the artists’ hands in terms of songwriting. Alongside “The Driveway,” “Moonshine,” and “Patterns” were created during this special time. Together, these tracks form a new palette of songs characterized by their rawness, directness, and honesty, shining both on record and in live performances.

In 2024, the band continued more concerts, including a spectacular highlight: an unforgettable show with the legendary Jane’s Addiction. This special performance also served as the backdrop for the new video of their latest release, They Do Not Care, capturing the intensity and raw power of the moment.
