About Nils Frahm

When it comes to defining the space between classical and electronic music, hardly any other name is mentioned as often as that of the Berlin-based pianist, composer and producer Nils Frahm. His unconventional approach to an age-old instrument, played contemplatively and intimately, and on a mesmerizing scale through his vast stage shows, has won him many fans around the world. Nils’ breakthrough album Felt was released on Erased Tapes in 2011. Two years later, he returned to critical acclaim with his album Spaces, expressing his love for experimentation and answering his fan’s call for a record that truly reflects what they experience during his live shows. Following the release of his album All Melody in 2018, Nils set off for another two-year-long tour, with over 180 sold out performances. In 2020, he released the concert film Tripping with Nils Frahm, trying to freeze a moment of this journey and capture his concerts in picture and sound. In celebration of Piano Day, Nils shared Graz in March 2021, followed by the dub-influenced seven-track album 2X1=4, and Old Friends New Friends, a collection of previously unreleased solo piano tracks. In September 2022, he put out his critically acclaimed, expansive album Music For Animals, an ambitious and compelling set different to anything Nils has released to date. Since then, he is back touring all over the world, presenting his original blend moving between the worlds of experimental, ambient and electronica.
