German musician Maximilian Hecker will give a show Friday in Shenzhen as part of his Sea of Silence tour.
Known for ethereal pop or dream pop music, Hecker’s style is similar to Radiohead, Sigur Ros, Tom Baxter and Nick Drake. He describes his songs as “melancholy pop hymns.” Hecker learned to play the piano, the drums and the guitar at Freiherr-vom-Stein-Gymnasium in Bunde in 1997. Having finished his alternative civilian service at Klinikum Schwabing in Munich, he started training as a nurse practitioner at the Charite Hospital in Berlin in 1999.
While a trainee nurse, Hecker continued pursuing his musical hobby, busking in the area of Hackescher Markt in Berlin-Mitte. Thus, he encountered Berlin’s music and cultural scene.
In 2000, the demo of his song “Cold Wind Blowing” was used for the score of German director Esther Gronenborn’s movie “alaska.de.” Soon after that, Berlin-based record company Kitty-yo, having released the movie’s soundtrack, offered Hecker a record deal.
麦斯米兰,德国“忧美”系全能创作男神,善用古典钢琴与假声,诠释出来的作品总是让听的人很安心,歌迷评价他“有着北欧后摇的空灵和清澈,很难想象他是处处严谨的德国人”。作为备受文青追捧的创作才子,麦斯米兰2018年将再次来到中国,带着他的新专辑,展开他全新的“SeaofSilence”寂静如海2018巡回演唱会。
