The Strangers Are the Friends

“Gidi & Mati” will be presenting their album, “The Strangers Are the Friends”, with a live performance on 13 February at Lettrétage in Berlin.

Here quotes form the mailing of Mati Shemoelof

„I would like to elaborate on it from an artistic point of view – Two years ago, we started jamming in Gidi’s Berlin living room. We didn’t know what would come of this project. I approached my art without fear, embracing insecurity in a new field, and so I started this musical journey, which, truth be told, I had never taken before. But to start down the path to a fruitful artistic career, one must be blind. We never said that we would have an album, but after performing in Potsdam, Berlin and Zürich, we realized that the time was right to record for future generations. I remember the thrill of entering the studio; for me, it was as if I was becoming a session musician with the Beatles. Gidi controlled the whole session and played all the instruments, but sometimes we jammed with the guitar. I learned so much and remember not even eating my sandwich on the way to the studio because I was so concentrated. Now, having reached one of the pivotal moments of my artistic career, we will celebrate with an album where I wrote the lyrics and Gidi composed the music, which we sing together. „

Thomas Schütt will read the English translation and friends will join us.
Please listen to the two magical singles that we have just released to all the music channels.

We hope to see you all at our special event in Berlin, celebrating this unforgettable moment with us.
