Thomas Rottenbücher

Thomas Rottenbücher versteht sich als Musiker der Singer/Songwriter Tradition. Er schreibt seit vielen Jahren eigene Lieder in englischer und deutscher Sprache. Seine meist ruhigen und einfühlsamen Songs spiegeln seine bewegten Lebenserfahrungen wider.

Der Künstler wurde 1951 in München geboren, wo er auch aufwuchs. Als Kind nahm er Unterricht in klassischer Geige, später brachte er sich als Autodidakt das Gitarrespiel zur Musik der Beatles und der Stones in den Swinging Sixties selbst bei. Schulzeit in München und West-Berlin. Ab 1971 on the road. Wilde und verschlungene Wege führten ihn durch die Hippiezeit und viele Länder der Erde. Seit 1992 lebt und arbeitet der Sänger und Multiinstrumentalist in Schmerwitz, einem kleinen Ort in der Nähe von Bad Belzig.

We come from the universe. When we arrive in this world, we carry peace and innocence within ourselves. Then our memories are wiped away and the inner eye closes. The long journey begins. Everbody must find a way through the challenges of being a human creature. We always have the freedom to decide if we grow with awareness and love and develop our full human potential or if we bow down to the demons of hatred, distrust and greed. Sometimes we lose our way in the darkness. Later in life we look back on what we have achieved and who we are. Maybe then we vaguely remember where we came from.We are on the way back home. May the big light guide us.

Music is mostly emotion and poetry, beyond intellectual understanding. These 14 songs reflect what has become more and more important to me. I thank all the wonderful peopleI have met on my way, who have given me their love and still do and who were open to the amount of love I was and am able to give. I thank my girlfriend Sabine for her patience, devotion and helpful advice during the making of this CD.

I thank Marcel Wricke, Dirk Rolle, Matthias Opitz and Bianca Heinze for contributing to these recordings and adding their creativity to my music. I greatly appreciate Marcel Wricke’s graphic design. My thanks also go to Jürgen Block from Blockhaus Studio Lütte for mastering the album as well as to Torsten Gränzer from Grenzton Label for publishingand promoting my music.

A warm hug goes to my beloved dog Jannis for the joy he brings into my life. My deepest gratitude belongs to my main inspiration, nature, for existing, sheltering and nourishing me.
