Joris

The singer-songwriter stormed the German charts in 2015 with his single Herz über Kopf and received numerous awards, including for his debut album Hoffnungslos Hoffnungsvoll. His live concerts thrive on his closeness to the audience and, of course, his catchy songs, which deal with thought-provoking topics as well as big emotions.

JORIS is a friend of clear words, even if it hurts. Many songs make us believe that it is possible to take away the pain of our loved ones. Not really, in JORIS' eyes. But closeness, comfort and understanding as first aid and long-term therapy. The main thing is not to let go of each other. Because sometimes joy and sorrow are extremely close together, as he demonstrates on the title track of "Willkommen Goodbye", which is bursting with positive energy. The real message of the album. "There will always be times that present you with unknown challenges," says JORIS. "We're feeling that more than ever right now. But these are the moments when you grow, discover new facets of yourself and broaden your horizons. Life always has wonderful surprises in store from time to time. The great trick is to never lose hope.
