Max Berend

When Max Berend starts to sing, it’s full of love, joy and positivity. His unmistakable cinematic songwriting follows the heart of folk and the spirit of pop. Making his music circle around the feeling of serenity and belonging.
Warm guitar sounds, a melodious piano, a raw sandy voice and honest pictorial lines are the ingredients of his indie folk-pop music. The easy-to-listen harmonies and accessible melodies are an invitation to enjoy his music as such. If you listen carefully to his songs, you discover a man sharing his inside world in a pure and delicate way. Sometimes he shares it in a soft and easy manner, sometimes rough and brutally direct. But always in a stirring way to feel comfortable with. Like a breeze at his beloved North Sea.

The Dutch-Swiss Singer-Songwriter was born and raised in Davos, Switzerland, by his Dutch parents. Today, he lives with his partner and dog in St. Gallen, Switzerland.

Um die Schwere im Leben in etwas Leichtes zu verwandeln. Egal was man beim Zuhören wahrnehmen will, viel Wärme und positive Energie wird es immer zu finden geben.

Geboren und aufgewachsen in Davos als Sohn niederländischer Eltern, lebt er heute mit seiner Partnerin und Hund in St. Gallen.
