Martin Kämpfer on his first album: "'Courage' is quite simply the perfect name for my first album. Despite all the emotions, strength, and setbacks, one thing was always clear: I have something to say. I have the courage to reveal my feelings and wrap them in music. I have the courage to see it through. Honestly, with all the mistakes that make life worth living. It all began with the decision to take piano lessons and give a face to my inner passion." Lukas Schick (calm_pilot), piano teacher and later producer: "I quickly caught wind of Martin's extraordinary voice, his exciting stories, and his eventful life. There sat a fully-fledged artist who only needed the perfect platform." With every hour in the recording studio, it became clearer: an album is the perfect medium. In three years, we had gotten to know each other so well that the lyrics and music could be perfectly tailored to me. That was the beginning of a friendship in a musical style that inspires thought with expressive German pop. As a passionate cook, I see my own parallels: I mix components, and in the end, something wonderful emerges. Harmonious, playful, and dreamy. I may not always hit the right note, but I always open my heart. It's been a long road to the release of this album, and I can hardly wait for you to hear it. I'm incredibly proud that we had the courage to go through with it."
