Soap&Skin is an experimental musical project of Austrian artist Anja Plaschg. She has been playing the piano since she was six. At the age of 14 she began violin studies and developed an interest in electronic music. She attended the Graz Polytechnic for Graphic Design, and in Vienna she studied art at the Academy of Fine Arts in the master class of Daniel Richter. Musicians like Xiu Xiu, Cat Power, Björk, Nico, Aphex Twin and composers like Sergej Rachmaninow or Arvo Pärt have had a great impact on her music.
