My imagination immediately lights up, picturing the nights ahead and dreaming up the atmospheres. I’m proud and grateful that, even after ten years, I still get to announce concerts again and again — and now the biggest ones I’ve ever played. https://t.co/3S2YfXIkcd

CON is the in-between. A liminal moment where time barely exists. CON zooms into the empty space suspended between transforming states. 

CON is out now for your listening pleasure. https://t.co/wxu4bbvFmP 🌿

My upcoming Album will be titled «Kluft». And the time ahead will bring many stories waiting to be told. For now have a look at the stunning artwork by Happy Little Accidents 💫

RAH has been with me for a long time, and then came a moment last summer that might well be considered the song’s true birth. Looking back, it’s clear that RAH found its defining contours and bold strokes in those very minutes.

„RAH” is my confident illusion — a beginning of a journey that later questions everything and I am proud and happy to show you the first part of this trip today.✨

The days grow shorter, the bags quietly waiting. Each sunrise draws the November tour a little closer. Finally, Riga and Tallinn are part of the path – I’m deeply looking forward to seeing you soon! 🍂 https://t.co/3S2YfXIkcd

Last Friday I experienced something that still feels hard to put into words. In my hometown of Weimar, I had the chance to play together with three wonderful drummers, Aline Patschke, Michael Nagler & Dave Daniel Bönsch at Kunstfest Weimar. 💫

Still trying to take it all in — that was my sold-out concert night at the Kölner Phiöharmonie. The room was packed, but so was my heart.

Your energy, your presence, your love — it all echoed far beyond the music. I’ll carry this feeling for a long time. Thank you so much. 🙏

[Martin Kohlstedt @martinkohlstedt]

still blown away…

Playing @jazzopen last night — alongside @jeanmicheljarre and in the company of artists like @LionelRichie , @raye , @jacobcollier and @kraftwerk — was something else. I’m truly moved. 🫧

All set and ready for the rest of this year’s shows. I’m so excited to finally be heading back to Scandinavia and the heartwarming East. If you’re around, come by — bring whoever you feel like being with. 🎈

[Martin Kohlstedt @martinkohlstedt]

Summer’s calling — new shows are locked in. Catch me if you can via https://t.co/3S2YfXIkcd 🌞

I’ll be playing at the legendary Kölner Philharmonie on May 16. And to my absolute joy, the place is already filling up fast. But! There are still a couple of tickets floating around if you’re up for celebrating something truly monumental with me. 🤯

Easter walk with my father — simply the best time of the year to wander the woods. Wishing you a wonderful season of new beginnings. 🌱

[Martin Kohlstedt @martinkohlstedt]

The last days of this tour were a dream. Southern Germany and as the grand finale, two unforgettable days in Switzerland. I’m still taking it all in. I’m deeply grateful, to my incredible crew, to everyone who came, supported, felt something. You made this journey unforgettable.

[Martin Kohlstedt @martinkohlstedt]

The final dates of my tour through Southern Germany and Switzerland are coming up – tickets are flying, so grab yours fast! And stay tuned for autumn – I’ve got a lot more in store, including shows in Scandinavia, the Baltics, and Cyprus!
