Nils Hoffmann

It’s a late summer night in Berlin’s Wedding district, the colored lights strung above softly illuminate bars and many patrons enjoying the last gasp of the warmer days. He messages he’ll be there in just a minute – he lives very close. He visits this bar often he says. It’s easy to see why. Moments later, a young blonde gentleman approaches the table and introduces himself as Nils Hoffmann. He sits. He has a story to tell.
“This is a gift, many people don’t have that.” Nils came up in a strong way in the early 2010’s with ‘Balloons’ catapulting him into the top shelf talent of the scene and solidifying it with his gripping live shows – at just 17. “There is no barrier to do music in our time… what sounds good is good and there are many ways to share your music with other people online.”
His debut album Once in a Blue Moon is the fruit of a 3 year labor; leading and shaping the artist just as much as he does the music. This the story of that journey, a collage pieced together through time.
Nils shares his perspective, “All in all this album is in its entirety how I wanted it to be and how a good album should be in my opinion. It's not very effective to release an album in the times we live in, so when I do an album I want it to be as personal and as magical as possible. An album that decides itself when it’s ready and takes its time until not every missing piece of the puzzle is there. Something special. Something that happens ???? ?? ? ???? ????.”
