Goss debuted in 2016 with the single “I Want ToKnow?????” and in 2017, his debut EP “Healthcare” was released and received international recognition from the likes of BBC Radio 1, The Line of Best Fit and CLASH. Since then, Goss has been on a journey with sold-out concerts, a European support tour forworld star Mura Masaand performances at Roskilde Festival and Heartland Festival, to name a few. In 2020, he released his critically acclaimed debut album “Group Therapy”, which according to Soundvenue (most cred. music & lifestyle site in Denmark) “should cement him as one of the most exciting pop artists in Denmark” –a feeling that both Danish media, fans and his live audiences share. The albumwasalsonamed one of the best Danish albums of the year by Politiken(national daily in Denmark). On the newalbum, Goss created a new universe, but it can still be considered a sister record to “Group Therapy”: “They are connected both in the musical expression and through themes, but also because they are made within the same period and therefore shares energyand mood,” says Goss.Most recently Goss released the critically accaimed album ‘I FEEL LIKE PLANET EARTH’ –wheresinglessuch as“Mad Man” (chosen as P3’s Inevitableof the week–P3 similar to BBC Radio 1), “Adrenaline”, “Ocean” and “Blue” ft. Mercedess, have each emphasized that Goss belongs at the top of the Danish music scene. In March, shortly after the release of the new album, Goss beganhis biggest tour in Denmark to date.

Man findet sie selten. Texte, die das aussprechen können was schmerzt, ohne sich dabei in Hoffnungslosigkeit zu verlieren. Doch genau das ist die Botschaft, die CARY mit ihrer absolut besonderen Stimme in die Welt sendet: „Ich fühle mit dir, ich verstehe deinen Struggle – aber wir schaffen das hier raus!“ Minimalistische Beats, irgendwo zwischen RnB und Trap, fusionieren mit melancholischen Zeilen zu einem Future Sound, der sich in der aktuellen deutschen Musiklandschaft extrem erfrischend anhört.
So zerbrechlich ihre Texte auch sein können – CARY redet nicht drumherum, sondern beschreibt ihre Gefühle ganz offen, egal wie extrem und diffus sie auch sein mögen. In einer Zeit, in der sich alle hinter Fassaden verstecken ist CARY diese mutige Stimme, die jeder hören kann, der sich nach etwas anderem sehnt. Es ist fast schon paradox, wie CARY ihre eigene Zerrissenheit beschreiben und gleichzeitig die Außenwelt zu mehr Optimismus ermutigen kann. Doch die harten Kontraste zeichnen das Bild umso schärfer und machen jedem klar, worum es bei CARY geht: Kompromisslose Ehrlichkeit.
You rarely find them. Lyrics that can express what hurts without getting lost in hopelessness. But that’s exactly the message CARY sends out into the world, in her absolutely special voice: “I feel for you, I understand your struggle – and we’ll make it out of here!” Minimalist beats, somewhere between RnB and Trap, fuse with melancholia to create a futurist sound: a refreshing change in the current German music landscape.
As fragile as her lyrics can be, CARY doesn’t beat around the bush – but describes her feelings quite openly, no matter how extreme and diffuse they may be. In a time when everyone is hiding behind facades, CARY is the brave voice that everyone can hear, longing for something different. It almost a paradox: CARY describes her own brokenness, yet at the same time encourages the outside world to be more optimistic. But the harsh contrasts paints the picture more sharply, making it clear to everyone what CARY is all about: uncompromising honesty.
