A place to arrive

Come in your own way.

A song, a thought, another point of view. Find your own way in.

Alps and dunes. Lakes and fjords. A song on the street. Different places, the same curiosity about life.

2011. First flights.

My first paragliding flights: near Lisbon, in Austria and above Lake Annecy.

Artistically reworked photographs from my archive.

By the river, ideas began to return too. A sentence came to mind, a musical thought took shape, and I felt like exploring a path. I tried not to turn it straight into the next task.

TRANSIENCE

Four songs written between open air, memory, a leap forward and the moment of letting go.

The next step does not always come from pushing harder.

For the moment when you do not need more pressure, but a little air and another point of view. Mountain Day began there.

02 ATELIER

Bavarian hills · basement · street · rafters

I don’t sing to escape life. I sing to enter it.

At a picnic on a hillside, Redemption Song came on—and for a moment there was a deep peace that stayed with me. The first songs came later in a basement, with only voice and guitar. They learned to breathe in the street. Today I record them in a studio beneath the rafters.

Across countries and changing homes, I kept trusting that meaning would emerge through experience. Today my atelier is my safe space. And the door to the outside stays open.

Self-taught, independent and rooted in Franconian Switzerland. The songs move through English, French and German; voice, black acoustic guitar and rhythm stay at the centre.

Living Charge · one idea, four signs

Even a quiet sign
can get through.

The copper line running through this atelier carries Living Charge: my metaphor for the energy that keeps us alive. These four signs are ways to make room for it — through attention, listening, connection and presence. Open one and see where it takes you.

I don’t see the whole picture. Sometimes your view shows me something I’ve missed. We don’t have to agree on everything for that to matter.

LISTEN DEEPLYTake a moment to listen

Sometimes a song gets to me before I’ve really heard the words. I can’t always explain it. I just know I want to listen again.

I put something of myself into these songs. You might hear something completely different from what I had in mind. I’d love to hear what they mean to you.

I don’t always get it right. I try to stop for a moment, notice what’s going on, and choose what I do next. And if I need to change direction, I can.
