The songs of his new CD Wenn wir warten were written in various places in Europe and describe the search for ways out. No know-it-all attitude, no moral elevation. Love songs in which reality shines through like a constant danger. Beaches and cities, nights and mornings, memories of childhood and waiting for that special moment that might lead out of hopelessness.
On Wenzel's new CD
When we wait, the cosmos of life is gathered together and interrogated for its meaningfulness. With level-headed tones, shimmering guitars and an unusually gentle voice, the singer goes on a journey in precise interplay with his band, with whom he also recorded the new CD. A quiet outcry in times of general armament and profanation of contradictions, a commitment to caution and culture.
Musically stubborn, evading the norms, succeeds in a balancing act between poetic precision and functional music limited to the essential. Longing for that place where one has never been before. Always on the search. Closeness and distance, security and homelessness, the hardly bearable impatience in times of waiting. Wenzel: vocals, guitar, accordion, piano.
