Rainhard Jürgen Fendrich (born 27 February 1955) is an Austrian singer-songwriter. He is one of the most successful Austropop musicians, and his songs are written in Viennese German. He is very popular in Austria and in Bavaria, but less so in other German-speaking countries and regions. His 1990 song "I Am from Austria" (its lyrics, except for the title, are in Viennese German) is still popular in Austria and considered to be the "unofficial national anthem".
