The Passport Season #5 | GERMANY
Manage episode 376152613 series 3250820
In just a few short decades, Germany has transformed into an epicenter of the arts. Whether it’s painting, writing, or music, artists from all over the world know that Germany is a place where your creativity can flourish. That reputation has led many to this European country, not just to create art, but also to appreciate it in a more tangible way. It’s also become a place where people can build a new life and start again; which is something we beautifully explore across this episode. I’ve been to Germany a few times throughout my life and crafting this episode made me appreciate the country in a new way. My favorite thing that I learned was that to Germans: the only rule of creativity is for artists to challenge themselves and the audience.
Joining me today are three artists who symbolize the eclectic creativity that Germany fosters. I’m joined by the unbelievably talented Wallis Bird (3:45), Milky Chance (45:40), and Meagre Martin (1:23:12).
Also, next week I’ll be dropping a radio broadcast that goes along with this episode. The playlist for that will be full of incredible German artists (along with other artists who call Germany home). That radio broadcast will be dropping on September 12th and you’ll find that only on Spotify.
RIP to Kieran (aka Profound Beats). The track you're hearing in the intro is his tune Twilight in Taipei.
