TMBM

New Classical Guitar

Berlin & Other Places LP out now!

Rethinking the honored genre of classical guitar music. Combining classical music with a modern mindset and making music that is accessible and touching: The mission of TMBM. The two Berliners Willi Leinen and Stefan Degel are both classically trained at the highest level and - the special thing about them - at the same time equipped with a feeling for and experience in songwriting and all kinds of modern music. With TMBM they manage exactly this balancing act: to lighten up the extraordinary quality on the instrument with joy of playing and easiness and at the same time to create deep and open worlds of sound. Music that never loses its connection to classical tradition and yet is open to contemporary pop and a new aesthetic.
