About
With a classic power trio line-up and stone solid dedication to the cream of 1960s British psych-pop sounds, Traum (German for Dream) draw their inspiration from the bands that originally defined the psychedelic aesthetic. Using vintage style instruments and gear complemented by classic production techniques, Traum bring analogue effects to the mix with truly mind-blowing results. Primary singer and songwriter Helen Lichter makes the magic happen in Traum’s own studio, where their debut 7" single for the Californian label Hypnotic Bridge Records was produced. The two songs “Hold The Line” and “Sunshine Song” were released in 2024 and got a few raving reviews including an extended feature in the renowned UK magazine Shindig. Currently Traum are working on a follow-up EP to be released in late 2024.
“German three-piece Traum’s inaugural release leaves no doubt as to where their hearts lie. (…) The vocals are dreamy and distant; the guitars snaky and sinuous.”
