About Me

"So I start up and sing, 'cause today it's a squirrels spring"

through cameras is an acoustic duo from Kassel/Germany. The band was founded in March 2006 to play some gigs and have some fun by making music. Coming from very different musical backgrounds, Gordon (vocals/rhythm guitar) and Jan (guitar/bgvocals) combine their influences, creating a melodic blend of Indie and Progressive elements in an acoustic universe. The songs are full of dreamy melodies and nature-inspired melancholy. Sit down and listen.

through cameras sind ein Akustik/Indie-Duo, sowohl in Marburg als auch in Kassel beheimatet. Gegründet im März 2006, entwickelten Gordon (Gesang/Rhythmus) und Jan (Melodien/Hintergrundgesang), deren musikalische Lebensläufe sehr unterschiedlich sind, schnell einen eigenständigen Stil und ausgeglichenen Gemeinschaftsklang. Die beiden Musiker kombinieren in ihren melancholisch-verträumten Stücken indierocktypische Akkorde mit ungewöhnlichen Melodien und Naturmotiven, getragen von klarem Gesang und teils progressiven Liedstrukturen. Nimm Platz und hör zu.
