Roger Stein - Isn't it nice here

Description

Isn't it nice here? There are places that only begin to shine in the right light – and sometimes this light is a song, but other times it's a neon tube over frozen pizza. In the series "Culture in the Supermarket," author, comedian, and singer-songwriter Roger Stein tries to shed light on both sides. In his new program "Isn't it nice here," Roger Stein transforms the supermarket into a poetic stage – aisle by aisle. He zooms in on the seemingly trivial and discovers entire universes within. Stein doesn't depict smooth heroes but shimmering characters – with all their cracks, contradictions, and tender longings. In the "Lobbyist Tango," for example, power dances with morality, but instead of finger-pointing, there's winking; instead of cynicism – empathy. Roger Stein has a keen sense for nuances and even in the coldest characters, he finds a spark of warmth. A panorama of the present unfolds in these songs: friendship, skilled labor shortage, survival artists, and self-survivalists share the stage, meet each other, clash – and yet all remain part of the same sometimes quirky, sometimes beautiful world, poetically captured with rhymed language. Musically, Roger Stein moves in an exciting mix of Schubertian depth, elegant pop charm – always seasoned with a good dose of mischief and fine humor. Rapid comedy numbers engage in lively dialogue with touching ballads, creating a program that invites both laughter and listening. A sound between asphalt dust and sunset, between dance hall and bar, between irony and intimacy. "Isn't it nice here" is more than an album title – it's an invitation to lift your gaze, tilt your perspective, and seek the beauty in the crooked. Roger Stein shows: beauty is not a place. It is a moment that is noticed. Roger Stein has long found his artistic home with his songs on Konstantin Wecker's record label, where he has been releasing his albums since 2013. The question and doubt run as central themes through the program. And thus, the mischievous songwriter asks himself: Is the reality we live in truly the only choice? Are we owners of our own parallel worlds? And is coincidence even conceivable without a logic constructed by us humans? https://roger-stein.de/ Additional information:
