PeterLicht is a German musician, author and performance artist known for his poetic, philosophical and often socially critical texts. His real name is not publicly known and he deliberately maintains an anonymous appearance in order to focus on his art. His music combines elements of pop, indie, electro and chanson, often using quirky, humorous and profound lyrics.
His debut album "Vierzehn Lieder" was released in 2001 and contains the song "Sonnendeck", which quickly achieved cult status. The song is a good example of his ability to combine light melodies with melancholic and reflective content. PeterLicht often deals with topics such as capitalism, self-optimization and the uncertainties of the modern world.
