Zeit der Zeichen – the new single from Fabian Harloff

“Zeit der Zeichen” is Fabian Harloff’s second single from his album “Auf dem Land”

After living the urban lifestyle for more than 20 years, Fabian Harloff moved to the countryside with his wife and pets in 2016. As a hobby farmer, he experienced the drought of summer 2018 in Schleswig-Holstein at first hand, which inspired him to write the song “Zeit der Zeichen”.

“Zeit der Zeichen” was also first released to the public as part of Fabian Harloff’s first Country album “Auf dem Land“. Fabian Harloff is regularly asked about this in interviews, and he says: “Climate change is happening everywhere, and as a father I would like my daughter to have the opportunity to grow up on an intact planet”, continuing: “The song is not about pointing the finger – instead it should offer a glimmer of hope that we can achieve a lot if we pull together.” “Zeit der Zeichen” is very earthy from a musical perspective and also expresses great positivity.

The environment has always been very important to Fabian Harloff, and he has been working with this topic in great detail for more than ten years: in 2008, he wrote the lyrics for the song “Immer wenn es regnet” for the group “Menschenskinder” which considers the same theme.

“Zeit der Zeichen” will be shipped to radio stations from 25 October 2019 onward. The accompanying music video can be viewed on social media, amongst other sources. The album “Auf dem Land” is available in both physical and digital format.

New stages of life are often accompanied by changes. This is also the case with actor Fabian Harloff (“Notruf Hafenkante”). Moving from the big city to the countryside in 2016 further cultivated his love of country music, prompting him to change his musical style and release his first country album, “Auf dem Land“, on June 28, 2019.

To celebrate this new beginning, Fabian Harloff will perform a CD release concert on June 28, 2019 at 8:00PM at the Nochtspeicher in Hamburg. There he will present all 10 songs of his album “Auf dem Land” to media representatives and visitors for the first time.

Fabian Harloff will be backed by his band: Jens Wrede (bass), Julien Kravetz (drums), Torben Widdermann (guitar), and Detlef Wiedeke (guitar). For that true country feeling, the band is joined by Rosa Panataenius (fiddle) and Nils Tuxen (pedal steel guitar).

To make this evening to be something special, friends and companions of Fabian Harloff will accompany him musically on stage during selected songs. The lineup includes fellow actor and friend Patrick Bach (“Silas”), Truck Stop founding member Teddy Ibing, songwriter Vince Bahrdt (Orange Blue), iconic Hamburg singer Lotto King Karl, as well as the original cast of Crickets from the jukebox musical “Buddy”, Hauke Wendt and Marko Formanek.

Fabian Harloff is excited for the concert and says: “For me this will be one of the most important and beautiful concerts of my career, and for the audience, certainly one of the best of the year. This is going to be a great party!”

Fabian Harloff has now musically settled down in the country

Actor and musician Fabian Harloff releases his first country album.

In 2016, Fabian Harloff started a new phase of life. He moved from the city to the countryside and bought a farm north of Hamburg. The move brought with it some changes that are reflected in the actor’s music (“TKKG”, “SK Babies”, “Rote Meile”, “Notruf Hafenkante”).

For his new album, Fabian Harloff has turned to country music, which he came into contact with for the first time during a journey through the U.S. state of California. Fabian Harloff on his love for country music: “I’ve always liked real hand-made music that doesn’t use a lot of technology, and I felt a connection with country music right away. Guitars, beautiful vocals and lyrics that are simple and honest.”

Fabian Harloff, who has lived in the city for more than 20 years, has returned to his roots, and has fulfilled his lifelong dream of living on a small farm with his dogs, cats, horses and family.

On his second studio album “Auf dem Land” (“In the Country”) he sings from the heart, and that’s exactly what he did, record his new album with his friends in a studio “in the country”.

Just simple and honest…

“I don’t make music here to please others, I make the music that my heart tells me…” said Fabian Harloff.

He has completed 10 songs for his album “Auf dem Land” and all 10 songs are from his own hand. He wrote the song “Ich fang Dich auf” for an episode of the TV series “Notruf Hafenkante”.

In his first single, the title song of the album, he sings about his new life with horses, dogs and cats, away from the big city noise, fast-paced trends, and pomposity.

“Auf dem Land” will be released on June 28, 2019, by AGR Television Records. Fabian Harloff will be celebrating the release of his new album with a CD release concert with his band and guests in the Nochtspeicher concert hall in Hamburg. Advance ticket sales for this special concert will begin on 12. April 2019.
