Andreas Liebert
In the artist's words:
Do you know those moments that people hardly ever talk about? The sleepless night. The conversation that leaves questions unanswered. The feeling of being close to someone and yet not quite reaching them. Andreas Liebert turns exactly these moments into songs. Honest, poetic, and with a clarity that touches the heart.
“Indie will never die! Andreas Liebert sends you captivating little hits—stirring and emo,” says Linus Volkmann, journalist and writer for Musikexpress. Anyone who experiences Andreas Liebert live quickly understands what that means. With his guitar, voice, and a special calmness, Andreas Liebert creates an atmosphere in which every word carries weight and even deep emotions become immediately palpable.
With the EP “Mondlandung,” which laut.de included in its selection of the best EPs of 2024, he opens an impressive window into his musical world. His songs thrive on precise observations, poetic imagery, and melodies that quietly make their way through the listener’s mind. They speak of loneliness and closeness, of memory, hope, and the questions that often only surface once silence has fallen. The TV tower becomes a symbol of loneliness; 4 a.m., the hour of silence between closeness and distance; and “Mondlandung” tells of the traces a person leaves behind and the questions that remain.
Anyone who appreciates Blumfeld, Gisbert zu Knyphausen, or PeterLicht will find points of connection. Yet Andreas Liebert remains unmistakably his own. His tone is quiet, haunting, and full of trust in the power of a good song.
On stage, these songs unfold their special impact. Andreas Liebert takes his time, allows for silence, and creates a space where listening becomes almost second nature. With his reserved manner and his keen sense for subtle observations, he fosters a sense of intimacy that cannot be staged. Little by little, the audience grows quieter—not out of politeness, but because every note lingers.
And yet his concerts are anything but heavy. Between songs, he talks about how they came to be, about encounters, coincidences, and the little stories from which music is born. With subtle humor and pleasant self-deprecation, he consistently creates moments that make you smile and take a deep breath. It is precisely this interplay of depth and lightness that makes his concerts so special.
Do you know those moments that people hardly ever talk about? On this evening, they become songs. Perhaps you’ll recognize yourself in them.
