Anna Maria Sturm, STURM & Sven Faller - Nur MICH (2024) Hi Res

“…And it falls, falls, falls!” Rain as a friend, as a welcomed companion, as a cleanser. There is rarely a more beautiful song in pop that sings about the rain and the feeling of being a raindrop yourself. “Only me” is what Anna Maria Sturm calls this heartfelt confession with which the singer and actress’s new album of the same name ends. It will be released on January 26th and will be available on all major platforms.

The Schwandorfer and her new band Sturm are celebrating the release on the renowned Munich label Enja Records with two concerts. In the afternoon she sings in Germering and that same evening she can be seen on the evening show on BR television. “Only Me” is Sturm’s most personal musical project to date. It is primarily characterized by the impressions that the difficult Corona years left on the artist. “I worked in a printing company at the time,” she explains about her strategy of being left without work, orders or income from one day to the next. “Sometimes I was really desperate, didn’t know what to do next and hated everything and myself most of all.”
