Modest Oda

When Modest Oda makes music, it sounds like more. Like more capturing thoughts while riding the subway, like more releasing what has been held back, like more accepting what has been let go. Like the essence of creative processes. And like the inner change that accompanies us in all of this, with which we are constantly evolving.

With his music, Modest Oda makes his vision audible and tangible. He tells of the changes in life's plans, of the paths we take and of the unstoppable transformation that is our inner drive.

Lukas Wassermann in real life - Modest Oda on stage - is a wanderer between worlds in more ways than one. His musical journey began in an alternative rock band, led him through a singer/songwriter phase and finally culminated in his current electronic indie sound with a lot of depth and refined detail. "The only constant is change" - Heraclitus would approve.
Modest Oda surrenders to precisely this change and becomes its herald. His lyrics inspire us to project them onto our own lives and encourage individual interpretation. They are a reflection of one's own perception of change, the accompanying feeling of being out of control and the journey through one's own head.

In recent years, Modest Oda has also made a name for himself with his impressive live performances. Both as a solo act and with his band set-up at concerts and festivals in Austria and Germany. Listeners describe the atmosphere at Modest Oda's shows as a mixture of intensity and sincerity, an insight into the soul - and a glimpse of how it can develop further.

His music is now heard in many countries around the world, with radio airplay not only in Germany, Austria and Switzerland, but also as far afield as Lithuania and Canada.
