On a sunny day at the beautiful Rittergut Positz, shortly before FAUN’s magical concert, I had the chance to meet Laura and sit down with her for a tattoo interview for our project. Surrounded by the special atmosphere of the estate, we spoke about the stories she carries beneath her skin and the deeply personal role tattoos play in her life.Live Review: Nocturnal Cultural Night 19 - Deutzen 2026 (Day 1)

An early autumn evening with temperatures over 30 degrees is made to be spent in crammed spaces like the Luxor (/ironyoff). However, the chance to see one of the breakthrough artists of the year in an intimate setting like this was totally worth it.

Palladium, Cologne, Germany 6th September 2026
The Black Keys - “Peaches ‘n Kream Tour 2026” - Special guest: Robert Finley
There is an unspeakable magic that happens when industrial architecture meets raw, sweat-soaked Blues Rock. Last night at the Palladium in Cologne, a capacity crowd witnessed a masterclass in American roots music - a double bill that bridged the swampy deltas of Louisiana with the gritty garage-rock spirit of Akron, Ohio. With THE BLACK KEYS, who are internationally celebrated icons of Blues and Garage Rock, headlining the bill, around 3,500 fans in Cologne were in for a treat.
Special: Britto KC - Doing What Feels Right

- Parent Category: Specials
When BRITTO KC appeared in front of my camera again, the face was anything but unfamiliar. I had first photographed Britto Khangchian roughly a decade earlier, during the early days of Neeraj Arya’s Kabir Café, including the band’s debut album and several live shows.Back then, I also remember the idea of doing something of his own coming up in conversation. I would not pretend to remember the details of conversations from ten years ago, nor was today’s project necessarily mapped out at the time. But the thought was there.
