It finally arrived!! Amaze Amaze Amaze (iykyk 😁) Well - it feels nothing short of amazing!! 🤩😍

This is my demo album In Moments Like These. Why bother to release a demo album on vinyl?

It’s a very special album to me. And yes - it’s imperfect and unpolished-but it still deserves to be out there on vinyl and not hidden somewhere on the Internet.

Listen on Bandcamp:

Holding your music on a vinyl record feels pretty incredible, almost surreal!

What a beautiful day to record some vocals! 😍 I was also able to recover an accordion track I thought I lost. 😅 Gotta love Cubase‘s backup system!

The albums are progressing!! 😊

There's a new song out in the Garden of Creation on Bandcamp today. It's a German-English song, hence the bilingual title. It's a song about letting go.

The song was born in a songwriting workshop and it's the first time I experimented with open tunings. For this demo I also recorded cello for the first time. It's not perfect but I've only been playing for two years! It was a lot of fun!

If you're curious to find out more, you can go here:

If you would like to have a little bit more background, I also wrote about the art of letting go on my Patreon. There's also a video of me playing the song!

This came out on 1st April 2021. In February and March I had recorded five songs for the RPM challenge. Later that same year I also recorded a song called Summer Morning and my one and only cover song - the beautiful Even The Stars by Lydia Manuel.

I had intended to put Summer Morning on one of my next albums but it really belongs with this project. And Even The Stars is there as a bonus. Both songs have a home now.

So the Nostalgia EP is now the Nostalgia Album and will also be out on vinyl soon through Elastic Stage!

I don't usually take selfies of myself in the mirror. But when I was in Cologne last year, I did it for fun in this second hand store. But sometimes mirrors aren't fun - they become beasts.

Because how many times do you stand in front of the mirror and think "Oh, sh*t!! I'm ugly. I need to lose at least 20 pounds!"

What if you talked to yourself like a friend instead of beating yourself up?

You're perfect just the way you are!

That's the message of my new song Piece of Art, coming to Bandcamp tomorrow.

When was the last time you wrote a letter to a friend? Has writing letters become a lost art? What if each song on an album could be a letter to a friend? I’m exploring that idea in my latest post on Patreon.

If you're curious read the full letter here: https://www.patreon.com/posts/148999876

Frost holds us in its grip...but there's also beauty there like this snowy tree illuminated by a streetlamp. Of all the winter months, January has my heart.
That's why I wrote a song about it - it's released as a demo in the Garden of Creation on Bandcamp as a subscriber-exclusive.
