Derrin Nauendorf (AUS)
Derrins Musik- und Solokarriere begann jetzt vor fast zwei Jahrzehnten. Das emotionale Songwriting, der erdige Gesang und der Roots-Sound erweckten die Fantasie des Publikums. Es führte Derrin als jungen Mann auf eine außergewöhnliche Reise, auf der er inzwischen über 2500 Shows in Dutzenden von Ländern auf allen Arten von Bühnen und Veranstaltungsorten absolviert hat.
In dieser Zeit hat Derrin elf Alben produziert, begeisterte Kritiken erhalten und sich einen Ruf als außergewöhnliche Spannung erzeugender Live-Performer erarbeitet.
Die feinsinnige Intensität seiner Song-Texte wird unterstrichen durch sein unglaublich virtuoses Gitarrenspiel.
Nach einer zweijährigen Pause vom Music-Business, die er genutzt hat, um sich künstlerisch weiter zu entwickeln und Lapslide-Guitar zu lernen, kommt Derrin jetzt mit neuem Album wieder. „The World Within“ ist eine Reise durch die Emotionen, ein Wechsel zwischen Lachen und Weinen von der einen Minute zur anderen, die durch sein hervorragendes Lapslide-Spiel noch lebendiger wird.

Derrin over the years has also featured in session on the Bob Harris and Paul Jones show on BBC radio 2, Tros Musik Cafe in Holland and Triple J radio in Australia.
Derrin’s latest offering is his 10th album entitled „Crazy World“. For this album, Derrin has signed with one of the foremost acoustic labels in the world, USA label Candyrat Records. Candyrat Records has been home to some of the most astonishing musicians from around the world of the past 10 years and a fitting home for this new album.
Derrin’s touring also career has no hint of slowing down. On top of extensive tours planned across the UK, Germany and Southern Europe, Derrin has just returned from an extensive tour of Australia and a successful tour of Russia including a Philharmonic hall sell out!!.
This is what Derrin says of the new album „Crazy World“ himself: „I had built much of my career around my live solo show, but realised for some reason I had never recorded a primarily solo studio album. I wanted to rectify this. I spent vast amounts of time on the arrangements to make the album as interesting as possible. I was desperate for it not to be a boring solo album. It had to have a purpose and take people on a journey. Hopefully I have achieved that.“ “
