Weerthof | songmaker

You messed up once again? Is your mind a wreck? Mold it into music! I tell you; things make much more sense if you do. Making songs to me is a primal need. Somewhere inbetween exploding and being anally retentive. Days of noise pollution follow. When my front door finally unlocks, a song is born.

A big associative questfest searching for the essential instrument, the one missing sound. Independant and DIY. To the bone. For better or worse. Resulting in utter win and epic failure alike. Anyhow, I make songs.

Support you local indie musician! Way more mp3's, full length albums, lyrics and all the scoops behind it @ my bandcamp page.
