Haindling is a German band founded in 1983 by Hans-Jürgen Buchner. The band is known for its distinctive style, often described as Bavarian world music, which combines elements of pop, rock, folk, ambient, jazz, and classical music. Most of the songs are performed in the Bavarian language.

Haindling is also known for instrumental works and film scores composed by Buchner. The band’s name is derived from the small village of Haindling, which is part of the town of Geiselhöring in Lower Bavaria.
