The Dry Dudes know how to transform deep emotions into casual, smooth songs. On their third album, "Grow," the duo from Emsland creates modern, distinctive pop with an R&B vibe: strong melodies on a solid groove foundation, and not a note too much. Anyone who hasn't had these two guys on their radar before should tune in now. Because these songwriters have big plans, and they're definitely already in a league few German artists compete in today. Any remaining doubts? The evidence on "Grow" is plentiful.
Singer Erwin Holm and guitarist Patrick Schütte distill their sound on "Grow" in a stripped-down, casual way. With clear words, the songs tell stories in which we can identify with ourselves, like "Paradise," about the desire to leave everything behind and just get away.

And we all have those days when absolutely everything goes wrong. But the Dry Dudes remind us that failure also presents an opportunity: "Grow." You can feel what this is about, even without understanding the lyrics, thanks to the strong atmosphere that remains consistent throughout all the album's tracks. Stylistically, "Grow" is significantly more mature than their previous material. Holm and Schütte take a major leap forward in their development and land in the heart of the present. Subtle synthesizers give the sound depth, while electronic beat elements provide an extra dose of groove. That's exactly how it sounds today.
