Singer-songwriter, musician and author Katja Maria Werker is now on Stockfisch with her album, "mitten im sturm" ("In the Midst of the Storm"). This woman with the sensitive, elfin-like features makes an appearance wherever she goes; on the stage of her dreams at the time when she was still collecting one refusal after another from the record labels frequented by her artistic role models. In her life as on the stage, storms have not been in short supply; as in the title: "Aus dem Beton" ("Out of Concrete"), it is revealed: the moon is inhabited. And a rough landing can still be followed by a smooth arrival – in this case by art.

"Mitten im sturm" is a richly facetted album – squally periods followed by intermittent calm, the rise and swell of the waves: Katja Werker's own compositions; fresh, energy-laden pop songs ("Crossfire"), some English and German folk; notably a Peter Gabriel classic from the Seventies ("Here comes the Flood") not to mention an awe-inspiring rendition of the German hit pop song "Über sieben Brücken musst du gehn". Arrangements are the artist's own.

Each of the album's tracks is unique, and all are highly authentic; personal in the literal sense of the word: human experience, a biography, strife, endeavor and triumph in life and art, heard – and felt – through the music ("Tief im Innern"). The eye of the storm is the place where pain and healing are neighbors, where "live or die" is the imperative, and hope is the tender but determined plant which pushes its way up out of concrete.

Music – and a voice – that goes straight to the heart and remains there long after the last song has ended.

All songs are beautifully performed in Katja's native German language except for "Crossfire" & "Here Comes The Flood" which are both performed in English.

Katja M. Werker's Mitten Im Sturm ("In the Midst of the Storm") is recorded as an audiophile 180g vinyl cut with Stockfisch's in-house Direct-Metal-Mastering cutting lathe.
