KISSE + WILLEM - Indie from Berlin

KISSE is fed up, because it has never been more urgent than now.

A few weather changes ago, newcomer KISSE was still singing singer-songwriter songs at climate demos under a different name. But at some point, soft sounds were no longer enough, because activism, critical songs, political commitment and art have never been more urgent than here and now, and so KISSE began to raise his voice. The singer-songwriter guise was discarded and new sounds were intoned.

Now KISSE mixes politics with danceable electropop elements, humor with seriousness and pain with lightness. To exceed expectations, KISSE breaks all gender norms on stage. With make-up and a pearl necklace, a partner's favorite pair of trousers and completely free of fear, KISSE creates a danceable plea to the young (and old) generation; for more political action, for more reflected media consumption and for a freedom that reaches further than the drawers in our heads.
