pinkpool

pinkpool is a young nu-punk band from Berlin formed by academic music students helplessly in love with punk rock. Raw emo blended with elements of prog metal and pop-punk shapes their fast, edgy, and tight sound that becomes even crazier live.
Fully independent and self-managed, they built a big online following fast: over 42k followers across socials and 350k+ streams on Spotify. Their debut single „wrong“ took them on a mini tour to Romania in basically their first month as a band, „second 2 fast“ got them the opening slot for Vita de Vie, one of the biggest alternative bands in Romania, and „away“ and its music video brought appearances on Rock FM, Magic FM, and TVR in Bucharest along with a first headline run in Germany. Across 2026 the band played 27 shows around Europe, from sold-out club nights to festival stages of a thousand people, and with their fourth single „catch me later“ they supported California’s legendary Alien Ant Farm in the Netherlands. That same year pinkpool was awarded a grant from Initiative Musik, Germany’s national music funding, supporting the next round of recordings and touring.

pinkpool will perform as part of the LISTEN TO BERLIN: YOUTH SHOWCASE on 4 November 2026 at House of Music.
