Carnival Kid

Country Germany The 11th of November, eleven minutes past 11 o’clock in the morning, sees the beginning of carnival season in Germany. Many people, including themselves, don’t really care about this. But the 11th of November 2009, at 9 past 11 A.M., their son saw the light of day. Children born on this day are called “Faschingskinder” in Germany - carnival kids. And since this event changed basically every aspect of their life, including their perception, writing, and interpretation of music, They felt it to be a pretty perfect name for a solo project. Carnival also includes the idea of hiding behind a mask, which They are kind of doing in a linguistic sense when They are writing and singing in English (or when They are writing this pseudo-international text). The kid-part of the name might give a hint to all the struggles you go through in your thirties, but They guess They better leave that to interpretation. And if this description made you laugh your ass off since it’s so cheesy, then that’s also some kind of carnival They suppose...
