Paula Engels

In the artist's words:

Paula Engels gives every thought a chance. Even the ugly ones. And that's how she writes her way from the darkest corner of her head into our driven hearts. The musician doesn't want to hide, she prefers to tell every shadow, to share every emotion. She believes that only those who don't hide behind things can seriously connect.

In her lyrics, Paula puts what is going on inside her on the outside in a nuanced way. In catchy and delicate language, the musician tells of the shame caused by
dependence, anger at herself and the fear that lies beneath everything.

Paula's songs want to touch and make others feel a little less alone with their own struggles. Paula ensures that they remain tangible - and reminds us with her unpretentious, light-footed coolness that fun feels even more intense when you take a closer look at your own demons from time to time.
