Dust & Bones (V.01)

COLLECTION 1 - BREAK up/out  is my first release as CHASING TALES and includes three deeply personal songs that I wrote in 2018 after my relationship of 6 years failed. The end of that relationship also marked the beginning of me wanting to get out and play music again after years of not playing publicly (hence the /out).All the songs were recorded during 5 cold days in December 2018 and mixed in February 2019 at Off Ya Tree Studios in Hamburg, Germany with my great friend, engineer and producer Eric Timmann. What started as bare structures and acoustic arrangements ended up being three multi layered, intimate, fragile but strong songs that follow the same theme but still sound very different.

Rather Not

Not The One

Heavy Head

This Soul of Mine is about the conflict between dreams to follow and a reality to live in. It’s about sacrificing a part of yourself, about self doubt and fear. But it’s also a reminder to stay strong. And a celebration of change.
The song marks the beginning of a new chapter and reflects the struggles and decisions one is confronted with when planning to make great changes. After all, I quit my full time job and sold most of my belongings to travel and play music.

Fly High Intro

Hamburg (GER) based Singer Songwriter CHASING TALES writes songs between folk and indie, heartbreak and wanderlust, darkness and light, elaborate stories and snapshots in time. 

After years of not releasing music, he released his EP Collection 1 - break up/out in April 2019. These three self therapeutic, dark songs about most songwriters favorite topic - heartbreak - not only helped him get through a tough time in his life but also showcased his talent on multiple instruments. Even though the EP was not meant for the masses, it was well received by blogs, friends and fans and allowed him to play shows all over Germany. It was also the beginning of another big change: At the end of 2019, he quit his full time job and sold most of his belongings to play music and travel. The Corona crisis put a halt to touring and traveling but not to his creative work. 
In May 2020 he will release a new single, only one of many exciting things to come.
