FEE.
The story of an ongoing music pilgrimage… Street music, living room concerts, sofa-beds, lyrics ‘on the road’ – the whole FEE-thing is always rolling forward, in the direction of happiness – for people to spread. Long since from bigger stages. Also outstanding. The Udo Lindenberg prize – the “Panic Prize” – “Unadapted music” was awarded. Unadapted? You could say that, and for her that means: success, YES: on her terms. No fake, no writing camp, no musical one-size-fits-all. But never with her head in the clouds, from which money or a spotify stream could rain. And? It works!
In 2020, FEE. returned with her new album “Nachtluft”. Direct and honest. Varied in tempo and theme. In addition, a bit more personal. A lively, humorous, but also reflective album.
An acoustic guitar, a captivating voice, sometimes smoky, sometimes soft, easy-going and full of life – FEE.
Nonchalantly and directly the young singer-songwriter Fee Mietz describes the search for the right place in life, attitudes towards the world, love, loss and self-assertion in her songs. They are shimmering, deep and beautiful songs. When she takes the stage, everything begins to shine. Fee knows how to thrill others, no matter where she goes. And when she asks you to simply embrace life at the end of one of the many long nights, even if it sometimes gets off track, you want to believe her every word.
The power to be with herself and to know exactly what she wants – that’s what the songs of FEE. are about, and her path as a musician is proof of that. With her band NEOH she goes straight to the top: Opening act for NENA, Wir sind Helden, Culcha Candela, a huge record deal – but Fee doesn’t want to be distracted by the music industry’s pressure to succeed. She gets out before she loses her own voice in the dictatorship of functionality.
Back to the most elementary part of music: writing songs alone with an acoustic guitar. She replaced the big stages with intimate sessions. Street music and living room concerts. All of them direct and close. Doing everything yourself, from booking to performance. Being able to grow again. Being able to spread her wings again.
Her new success as a solo artist proves her right: Winner/young talent act at the Women of the World-Festival, support with Katie Melua, over 200 concerts in the last three years. She released an EP, over 100.000 clicks on her first video EIGENTLICH. The woman is unstoppable. And that’s a good thing.
EIN ZIMMER KÜCHE BAD the first solo album of FEE. was released in 2018. It was produced by Andi Kunze, a well-known figure in the Frankfurt music scene and recorded in the b9Studio in Frankfurt. In 2020, FEE. returned with her new album NACHTLUFT. Direct and honest. Varied in tempo and theme. In addition, a bit more personal. A lively, humorous, but also reflective album.
“A woman with an acoustic guitar and successful German lyrics full of humour and feeling” Folker
“She is the rising singer/songwriter star of Frankfurt” Frankfurter Neue Presse
“Frankfurter Pop Poet” Frankfurter Rundschau
“The young artists, who try their hand at velvety German lyrics, shoot up like mushrooms from the ground. Often random, but Fee. is different. With her everything fits perfectly. With her debut album she combines strong lyrics, sensitive music and a tender voice. “Thumbs up for Fee.” Rhein Necker Zeitung
“[…] despite conventional band line-up – none of the usual clichés between German rock à la Silbermond and German soul pop. […] The acoustic character is preserved, the voice – always at the forefront – radiates melancholy and nonchalance at the same time, thoughtfulness and a spirit of adventure. Journal Frankfurt
“Now the 27-year-old presents her CD debut “Ein Zimmer Küche Bad”. With its poetic day-to-day lyrics set to semi-acoustic singer/songwriter pop, it radiates melancholy and nonchalance at the same time. Main Echo
“Shimmering, deep and beautiful songs” Rhein Main Magazin

In 2020, FEE. returned with their new album “Nachtluft”. Direct and honest. Varied in tempo and theme. In addition, a bit more personal. A lively, humorous, but also reflective album. FEE. keeps her promise: Work, on all aspects of her ideas, of true feeling, of perfect expression. Not for the label, for the ALBUM! Appropriately, she thought, for album number two she will take everything into her own hands. Crowdfunding, “check”, recordings “check”, and most important of all: emotion, “check”. The latter, from sugar sweet to crazy, from dreamy to philosophical. Her songs are impetuous odes to life, bizarre observations, self-irony, familiar sisterhood. Everything that comes from the heart, goes. Loud, quiet, ardent, intimate. FEE. is about expression and attitude, sometimes joy, sometimes tears. No matter how and where we hear FEE. She jumps into the battlefield of heart and spirit with and for us. Whether hippiesque, pop or punk. Whether in vocal expression frivolous or sensual, smoky or clear. Album two is near!
