Blues Songs

I wasn't born a blues fan. For years I knew the genre only from a distance, upbeat, lively, far too cheerful for my restless spirit. Then I stumbled on those endless Slow Blues and Whiskey Blues nights, and everything changed: slow rhythms, sumptuously mournful guitars, songs that broke free of every predictable structure. The pain was still there, but this time the music didn't try to make me forget it.

The point was to live the emotion, to heighten it, to let it fill you completely.

Album 01

Midnight Lies

An album about the night, a journey from midnight to dawn. In the deep night every mask falls away, and you can finally look straight at the truest part of yourself, hour by hour.

Tracklist
01
Midnight Lies

Midnight. The lies still stand, you bend them to your advantage, playing at being better than you feel.

02
Heart Made for Bleedin'

A reckoning with every love that never loved us back, everything that makes us say "I was never loved."

03
Slow Burn Kiss

The one sincere gesture of love rises back to memory, intense, burning, though it flew away forever.

04
Dance with Me

One last dance before letting her go into the chaos of the night, remembering our own carefree freshness.

05
Satin and Sins

The awareness of every time we were used to serve someone else’s desires, then discarded into the night.

06
Shadows on the Wall

In an empty room our ghosts arrive one by one, not to torment us, but to keep us company.

07
Lullaby

Relief. A friendly inner voice: "You’ve done enough. Now you can rest a little."

08
Too Late for Prayin'

Waking unredeemed, we accept our sins as part of us, standing aware before any divine judge.

09
'Til the Morning Comes

Deserted streets, a world emptied and still, free to walk barefoot and be anyone, even yourself.

10
Night Is Over

Dawn. You danced with your demons and accepted them, and an inner peace you cannot explain arrives.

Fallen
YouTube Spotify Bandcamp
Album 02

Fallen

An album with a strong spiritual dimension. This isn't about falling, we have already fallen from Grace. It's not time to prevent it; it's time to accept it, and move on. A Renaissance fresco of once-pure beings enduring earthly life.

Tracklist
01
Heaven Won't Listen

A direct accusation aimed at paradise: heaven has no interest in saving us. Abandoned, we find our own way.

02
Gray Sunrise

A cruel gray dawn denies the comfort she needs after wandering all night, still she hunts for a golden glimmer.

03
Let the Sky Fall

Tired of holding it all together, we challenge fate: let it crash down. Dirty but alive, we find another place.

04
Sacred

Sacred prostitution in a modern light, priestesses channelling sexual energy toward their god.

05
Would You Let Me Come In

The night from a monster’s view: even monsters fear loneliness and crave love, not blood.

06
The Wrong Turn

Deeply personal, the road to transition not taken, and the private hell of that regret.

07
Can't Love an Angel

Angels are too alien to truly reach, we can only love them from afar, like the sea or the wind.

08
Let the Love Sing

The positive turn: blues and gospel blend into a joyful hymn to let love flow, unconditionally.

09
Couldn't

An intentionally wild, illogical song, pure thought-free emotion, our inability to resist desire.

10
Survive

The epilogue: fallen and alone, yet we survive, still holding the power to choose our own path.

Unhearded
YouTube Spotify Bandcamp
Album 03

Unhearded

A word that doesn't exist, 'Unheard' amplified, charged with desperation. Everything I believe goes unheard in the world, and everything I screamed that stayed unheard. When words aren't enough, don't be afraid to invent new ones.

Tracklist
01
Slow the World Down

A cry against a frantic, merciless world. We were not born to run like this, learn again to breathe.

02
Can’t Wait to Love You

A love song lingering on the hardest truths: the desperation of missing someone, the commanding desire to feel them again.

03
…And the Rain Will Fall

The darkest despair, image after image, and the awareness that the rain, and the pain, will always fall again.

04
She Walked Away from Paradise

A feminine being who freely chooses to leave paradise. No shame, no sin, a gentle, destructive blasphemy.

05
All My Sins

An intimate midnight at the piano, no one listening, the only time you can be truly honest with yourself.

06
Behind the Velvet Smile

Confession on a stage: a velvet smile hiding deep wounds. She sings her pain, but no one hears it.

07
Every Step Closer

The pain of losing someone, and the comfort that every passing moment is one step closer to reunion.

08
Last Train Blues

The last train to happiness has already left, alone in an empty station, with no one to hear our bitterness.

Album 04

A Merry Blues Christmas

My own Christmas album: the best traditional holiday songs, their lyrics reworked with a modern twist, and reborn in the blues. A soft spot for the season, finally given its own voice.

Traditional classics, reworked, retold, and steeped in blue.
