With his new solo project, Nik Nova returns to his musical roots and releases his first solo album, "At The Crossroads." It features ten songs whose singer/songwriter foundations draw influences from blues, rock, grunge, and folk, addressing various emotional states, carried by Nik's versatile and captivating vocals.
For the Cologne native, the album is a matter of the heart: "Loss and grief, the desire for a better society and time, longing, anger, fear, and insecurity: there's hardly anyone who doesn't feel all of these things right now. I hope that my music can be a catalyst for confronting these issues in a healthy way and ultimately taking something positive from them."
The final result is an intense and personal album, clearly evidencing the work of a gifted musician and songwriter who understands how to translate emotions into sound and create an individual musical character from a wide variety of influences. And it's a reminder that a time will come that is less hopeless and stagnant, especially in cultural and interpersonal terms, and in which music can once again be a social and societal event.
