What do you get when you cross Swiss yodeling with Rockabilly?
Why, Swissabilly, of course.
In December, UNESCO added Swiss yodeling to their list of intangible cultural heritage. I'm actually shocked that it wasn't on there a long time ago.
Anyway, let's lighten the mood and ring in the new year with a fun little ditty:

The one and only. This song is from their latest album released last year. The album is good, if you like Oesch's die Dritten. It is available to listen to on their YouTube channel.

The reason for that is because they are family. This song only requires the talents of Melanie, her brothers Mike and Kevin(bass and guitar), and their father, Hansueli. Most other songs will include the mom, Annemarie, as well as an outside guy (Urs Meier) that plays the standard large accordion. They are a very close-knit family.
