Live: ANSA SAUERMANN + Anna Leyla

In the organizer's words:

According to an old rock'n'roll cliché, the third album is the make or break album. It is said to decide whether a newcomer's career finally realizes its full potential and rises to the Champions League or whether it will bob along forever.

ANSA SAUERMANN (Dresden) >>> Pop / Songwriter
If the cliché is true, Ansa Sauermann will be a pop star this year. His previous album "Trümmerlotte" (2020) was praised to the skies by critics, who spoke of an "intoxicatingly beautiful album", "packed with hits" and "recorded with a fervor as if his life was at stake". The album was released at the height of the pandemic, and Ansa, one of the best live acts in the German-speaking world, was - let's be frank - fucked for the time being. That's all in the past now. And wonderful things have happened since then, especially in his private life. Ansa has fallen in love and married into a Swiss pop star dynasty of Sicilian origin. Needless to say, such an exuberance of emotions is inspiring, and album three reflects this crucial point in his life. It is his masterpiece. Romantic, poetic and as fiery as ever. The boisterous power pop of the lead single "Erfolglos" signals that Ansa is still hungry and overflowing with passion and lust for life. Due to his language, Ansa is quickly placed in the unsexy German pop corner; but this time more than ever, it should be emphasized to all cynics that this is so much greater cinema. He simply shakes a sunny pop gem like "Palermo" out of his sleeve. In "B-Sides", the fun-loving Dresden native, who has lived in Vienna for five years, also shows his reflective side and becomes as majestic as one can be without being kitschy. "Jung" begins undercooled and naturally can't hold back, but turns into a cool, stormy thing by the chorus at the latest. The pared-down acoustic ballad "Schlaflied" eventually grows into a soul anthem before ascending into the heavens. Let's not kid ourselves. It's just beautiful. You can't always get what you want... but you get what you need! There's so much more to say. But Ansa can certainly do that better via interviews.
