Relatively idealistic, quite socially critical, mainly self-centered - STRAHLEMANN is melancholic, powerful and soulful indie rock for late nights and balmy summer evenings. For long train rides from the place where you thought you were at home - to where you don't know what to expect.
Sad music in a major key - STRAHLEMANN clothe the diffuse emotional contradictions of a whole young life in a cozy, sad-optimistic sound that is not too bad for the odd pop allure - and sing about feelings without douching. Being vulnerable, showing feelings and celebrating the gap between what you are allowed to be, what you are and what you want to become. According to DUDEN, the term STRAHLEMANN describes someone "who habitually shows an (exaggerated) radiant smile (in order to appear likeable to his audience)".
