In 2022, Betterov released »Olympia«, a universally acclaimed top 5 album. The extension »Olympia (Ehrenrunde Deluxe)«, which followed in October 2023, including new tracks and guest contributions from Paula Hartmann, Blumengarten and Provinz, has made Betterov known beyond the German indie pop scene. In 2022, he won the Prize for Pop Culture, played at Late Night Berlin, Inas Nacht and Studio Schmitt and crowned the packed festival summer with a sold-out headlining tour. After that, things went quiet in the public sphere for a while, while in his room the decision grew to place his own upbringing more proactively than ever at the centre of a new large-scale musical project.
At the end of this journey is now a new, second album that feels much more focussed than the previous one. Once again, Betterov has recorded the new songs in collaboration with producer Tim Tautorat – after all, he has had a decisive influence on his sound from the very beginning. Before the release of the next album, Betterov will be presenting 2025 solo at the piano in special locations – with one or two new songs in his luggage, of course.
