Boris Steinberg, the original Berlin chansonnier, sang his way note by note in the wild chanson Berlin of the 90s, shaping his own style with self-written songs and lyrics, establishing a firm place in the “New Berlin Chanson Scene”.
For ten years, he organized the Berlin Chanson Festival and is currently the host of the monthly Salon-Chanson at the Berliner Volksbühne in the Green Salon. He found his way onto the radio in the early 2000s with his secret radio hits "Fallschirmspringer" and "Unter meiner Haut." Together with his congenial companion, guitarist Tobias Schmidt, he has now released a new CD: Wilde Pferde in meinem Körper.
On his ninth studio album, he takes the listener on a nighttime journey through Berlin: from Wedding to Neukölln, from Kreuzberg to Prenzlauer Berg. With poetry, humor, and heart, he peers behind the windows of his city ("Behind"), hangs out in one of the last corner bars ("Don't worry, I'm fine!"), searches for the old Berlin of old days ("Berliner Nasenbluten"), and encounters a Jesus ("Tattooed Crosses") who bathes all darkness in wonderful light.
All this and much more happens between sleeping traffic lights at dawn and the last cigarette on the old Berlin mattress, until the wild seahorses go to sleep (“Wild horses in my body”).
