Austria3 was a supergroup of three Austrian quite individualist singer-songwriters Wolfgang Ambros, Georg Danzer and Rainhard Fendrich.
The group was initiated by Fendrich in order to give one single charity concert in favour of homeless in 1997. Their success as a group was overwhelming, and the three individualists showed up on stage as Austria3 from that day on, until they decided to stop that project, which they announced on 10 June 2006. Their last concert was given at Altusried, Germany, on 26 July 2006.
However, at Georg Danzer's comeback concert in Vienna on 16 April 2007, the three individuals met again [for just three songs] but even "thought in public" about possibly re-uniting in 2008. and sang a few of their old classics.
Georg Danzer died from lung cancer on 21 June 2007.
"Austria3 is history by now.".
