I live on the country side in the south of Germany. I love to call myself a sound artist, poet and bass player. In my "real" life I work as a social worker and therapist. Music is a powerful force in my life which grows more and more in the last two years. I am a big fan of playing together. So I take any chance to do this.
My artist name is Mahtowin, which means Bear-Woman. It reflects my connection to the natural world and certain animal guides, which seem to inspire my work. The power of the icebear works inside me. And also the power of the Selkie. I think the icebear power makes me play the bass and my Selkie part makes me write some kind of very delicate lyrics sometimes. Both - the icebear and the Selkie are guides to me.
In music as in life I follow many traces. My personal goal is to be aware of what is around and inside me in the present. Now. Try not to think too much about the past or the future (which is hard sometimes, but I try). To stay in present and to recognize the beauty around me (which is a lot) and also the anger and grief, the love and the joy. To accept that all this is LIFE - and I love it!
Very interested in collabs!
Call me she/her/Andrea/Mahtowin/Bear
Constructive feedback to my bass playing is welcome - but only if you have in mind that I started learning e-bass in Feb 2022 :-)
As you can see above I am German. English is not my mother tongue and I often struggle with the translation when I comment on songs - I try to do it but it will not be very detailed.
