Music
I wrote my first song when I was 13, and over the past 25 years, my passion for the guitar has never stopped. During this time, I was able to perform on stages in Germany, Switzerland, Croatia, and the UK with bands and as a solo artist.
Over the course of 2024, I will release six singles that I have written over the past years. I am super proud to have finally put this production together!
I will release the tracks between March and September, complete with a big release show at Privatclub (Berlin) on August, 31st.
Influences
Spotify really violently tries to force sad songwriters from the American Midwest down my ears. Actually, I enjoy Paul Simon and James Taylor. If you listen to my songs closely, you will be able to hear hints of John Mayer and Dave Matthews. And yes, I also belong to the "top 0.1% of Bryan Adams fans" in my year-in-review... but I guess that’s because most OG Bryan Adams fans can’t figure out streaming.
On the contemporary side, please check out Bahamas, Beatenberg, Madison Cunningham, Jacob Collier, Bombay Bicycle Club and The 1975. Kinda eclectic but still mainstream enough to work for a dinner playlist.
I spend a lot of time in introspection – mine or that of my coaching clients – and my lyrics reflect just that. For the 2024 singles, I have written about the challenges and complexities of growing up in today's fast-paced world, touching on themes of love, growth, and the search for identity. Really just the stuff you’d struggle while if you’re trying to figure out if you have lost your shit or if the world has become absolutely crazy.
