Don’t get carried away with the light-heartedness that overlays all her songs: behind every romantic memory, every daydream-laden sigh, there's a trapdoor that opens up to reveal greater depths of experience and self-knowledge. "If it feels so good, how can it be that bad?" - unfiltered and direct, her lyrics let us look deep into the shark tank of everyday banalities, decisions and emotional chaos that we are all constantly confronted with. The first BROCKHOFF songs were born after she moved to Hamburg from a small rural town. She fully immersed herself in the big city, let herself drift, and found herself confronted with an environment of creative curiosity. All of these new impulses eventually gave form to her contrast-rich sound.
The 22-year-old musician employs natural unassuming honesty to find a strikingly mature musical middle ground. With serene self-confidence BROCKHOFF opens drawers full of stereotypes and rummages through only to dump them out and rearrange them, all the while resisting the temptation to moralise. She pays homage to international role models of decades past, evoking memories of bands like The Cardigans, Foo Fighters or Sheryl Crow, yet injecting that nostalgic sound with the sensitivity of contemporary indie songwriters like Snail Mail, Phoebe Bridgers and Soccer Mommy.
