The keen reader might remember about Fish and Scale, stunning folk project with a knack for meaningful lyricism and relatable tones. Writing about one of his previous singles, ‘Stay’, we proudly declared: “The German folk artist values authenticity over everything else. In a way, art for him is a transformative endeavour, a tool for connecting with the deepest parts of his consciousness.” We stand by our words: Fish and Scale’s mission becomes even more clear in his latest EP, ‘Wonderful’.
Introduced by the always wholesome ‘Stay’, the record continues with ‘Don’t Care’, a more playful and daring piece, showcasing a slightly different side of the Nuremberg-based creative. ‘Feel’ take us back to sleazy and poignant vibes, while ‘Wonderful’ draw the EP to a close in true acoustic, elegant fashion – a charming grand piano and majestic vocals.
Lyrically, that’s where Fish and Scale really glows: for him, every single lyric is an opportunity to offer value to his listeners, a reason to connect to them. Describing the various stage of introspection and self-awareness during life, the German talent manages to almost write a concept album, exploring – in his own words – “a journey to the origin of the own existence, a journey of self-discovery.”
