My album is out! - this was the opening song :)

Heyyyy there, it's been a while! I can proudly say that my album 'Salty Waters' is now out in the world and everywhere for you to listen! It's been a long ride ufff, I've basically worked the last two years on these songs - the first one (Deep Blue Water) written in September 2023, the last one (Hush My Darling) in May last year. I could tell so many stories, so many behind the scenes situations, so many inspirations and journeys, that I've went through during that time.
But right now I just wanna say how happy and proud I am that we've created this, in the end there were so many people involved. I've said it in one story on Instagram a few days ago and I still think it's true haha - people say it takes a village to raise a child, but it definitely also takes a village to release an album. Even when you're working in a comparable small and independent team with your friends. And I'm gonna take the opportunity to give a shout out to all of them here, in this video you can see:
Tim Joshua Zwerger - who also did production, mixing, drums, guitars, bass and vocals - on drums & backvocals
Saulo Santana - who I wrote Deep Blue Water with - on electric & classical guitar
Mina Naomi - who is the newest member in my band - on bass & bassvocals
Manuel Gaudêncio - who played trumpet on Hush My Darling and who recorded & edited most of the visuals, including the album cover! - on backvocals, same as acoustic, classical and electric guitar

Not in the video appears Jake Stumpf, who was the best roady I've ever had, offered and drove the equipment bus, who organized snacks before and took pictures during the concert, kept my back free and made everyone believe that he is my manager, haha.
Also Rebecca Lynn Sprague & Ian Strahn, who were the magical support act, love them, so happy that they were part of the show!
Maria Tamila Kügler who helped me writing & singing Lose Myself and Jamie Kierans who I created True Blue with! Would have loved to have you there, miss you!
Nicolas Urban, who pulled off one of the most badass saxophone soli (and most gentle flute sounds) I've ever heard, if you want proof listen to the studio version of Earth's My Home :)
Julia Jackel, who played a whole orchestra of comforting strings for Lose Myself!
Luís Cavadas, who did a great job in adding my songs the final sparkles in mastering.
Pauli Zet who jumped in last minute to be the doors person, he did a great job in being the first friendly face people would see that evening, and Pauline Knibbe-Klimt for being the photography-fairy she is and Emma Reinhard for capturing some camcorder vibes :)
And my friend Xandi Khoss for taking this sneaky video I can share here with you now!

It's the first song we played on stage - Earth's My Home. I really started loving this song again when I played it with them together. Hope you enjoy it! I was pretty nervous but also so hyped and happy to finally start the show! I've waited to long for that moment :)

I'm so happy that this village of people did all of this with me, you can listen to Salty Waters everywhere online! Pauline & I are still working on the offline merch, like Cd's & Vinyls etc, once I have news about that you're the first to know! :)

Sending you all the bestest, have a beautiful week! Let me know which song is your favorite, if you want!
