Johanna Borchert, born 1983 in Berlin, is a pianist, singer, songwriter and
composer currently residing in Copenhagen (since 2017). Her initiatives are
praised as transcending genres and as being multilayered works, for which she
received several awards, including but not limited to: the Danish Music Award
and the New German Jazz Prize.
For her vocal debut in 2015 „FM Biography“, Johanna received the “Echo Jazz”
as the best national singer. The follow-up album „Love or Emptiness“, which was
released in November 2017, has received exceptional praise from the press:
[...] „If the world were fair, David Lynch would have invited Johanna Borchert to
reissue his series“ Twin Peaks „To play one of her imaginative songs on the stage
of his ‚Roadhouse‘.“ [...] - Jazzpodium 2017
Johanna has been a regular guest on renowned European and international
concert stages and festivals. At the heart of her artistic expression is her open and
playful approach to music.

about

Dwelling in a mysterious dreamtime realm where perceptive texts and incisive rhymes float within a translucent acoustic-electronic instrumental biosphere, AMNIOTIC will abstractly depict the nine months that slowly morph from the inception of life to the everyday miracle of new birth. Like an audio micro-photograph ... without the sentimentality.
A far cry from the dreaded dime-a-dozen singer-songwriter-as-emotionally-overwhelmed-parent record, AMNIOTIC will dispense with the narrative cliché of maternal hope, doubt, fear, joy, expectation, depression, and acceptance to document the inner workings of biological change, hormonal shifts, and psychological challenges with a language that is simultaneously scientific and vernacular ... set to music that movingly portrays both the age-old intra-uterine world and modern extra-bodily environments in contrast and correspondence.
