Lyrics:

It's like I've never seen the sky before
the veils are lifting I can see it more and more
the painter draws the brush precisely through the scene
it seems so easy, so easy

Storm clouds gather 
the sun is gonna hide 
forces of nature will soon collide
a buzzard’s playing confidently with the wind 
it seems so easy, so easy

Hark Mama
there is a tune coming through the rain 
we’ve never heard before
so Mama
come to the window let the healing begin 
who knows when we will hear it again
who knows when we will hear it again

The creek is growing 
we should change its name 
the summer’s daughter is gonna lose the game 
a herd of horses‘s flying over wood and grass
it seems so easy, so easy

Hark Mama
there is a tune coming through the rain 
we’ve never heard before
so Mama
come to the window let the healing begin 
who knows when we will hear it again
who knows when we will hear it again

For personal reasons

The summer‘s daughter

The Summer's Daughter

There were times I knew that I was gonna change the world.  
Ride off in the sunset, on a horse, with the girl.
Be a hero, save the day – maybe they’ll throw me a parade.
Instead, I’m working nine to five, trying to pay my dues.
Most weekends I’ll mow the lawn, maybe change a fuse.
Fix a leak and pull some  weeds.  Maybe a hero’s not what you need.

I could have been a bright light in your darkness, a pedestal to lift you up.
A voice of reason in uncertainty, when your lips were dry, I could have been your cup.
I always tried to stand so tall.  I soon found out I could not do it all.
The thing you needed me to be – was enough.

I always thought I had to be strong, be the man.
And you always let me, I see now, and understand.
No, I never saved the day, but you let me think that way
You always smiled and said you loved me as I am.  
Said you wouldn’t change a thing, happy as a clam.
Looking back, it’s plain to see all the things I could have been.

I could have been a bright light in your darkness, a pedestal to lift you up.
A voice of reason in uncertainty, when your lips were dry, I could have been your cup.
I always tried to stand so tall.  I soon found out I could not do it all.
The thing you needed me to be – was enough.

I always did what I thought was best for us both. 
I only needed to do enough.

Why is it so much easier to show hate than love? 

Love vs Hate

"How much do you want for that?" I asked my schoolmate, pointing to an old, dusty guitar hanging on the wall of his room. I was 15 when I bought it for 50 bucks. That was my start in music. I soon formed my first band "The horses" with my best friend. The horses just managed one concert before the band was history again. I left the area and settled around Lac de Constance where I played bass in various bands over the next few years. But my musical career never really took off. During this time I became a father and other things became important. Over the years, music faded more and more into the background.  Except for one day in June 2015 when I literally woke up on a hike over the Sertig Pass. (The song Forty Five on the debut album "For personal Reasons" tells the story) I had to turn 45 and remove a lot of nonsense from my world view to realize that my "calling" is music. So I came back with a plan and lots of song ideas and got to work. Of course, and luckily, I had completely underestimated what it meant to produce music. If I had known what hardships and detours would be necessary to reach my goal, I wouldn't have set out at all. But I did, and I went through with it. Especially in the last two years I was very productive and produced two albums in our little cottage in the Alpstein mountains.
The first "for personal reasons" is an intimate and rather folky album with autobiographical traits. The second, "Welcome an Goodbye", is more complex and rockier but no less personal. I wanted to bring an emotional depth to both, which is reflected in both the music and the lyrics. I hope that I have succeeded. But see for yourself. The first way to do that is the single release "The Summer's daughter" which will be released on all major streaming platforms in May 2024.
