Ward Dhoore - Outsiders

Ward Dhoore is a multi-instrumentalist, composer, and storyteller. After 15 years of touring Europe, America, and Canada with various projects, a wider and international audience got to know him through his debut album It Was All Heart (2025) - which was, among other things, selected for the German Critics Award and the World Music Charts Europe. His artistic growth did not go unnoticed in his own country either. For example, Radio Klara selected him in 2022 for the series De Twintigers. But anyone who has seen Ward on stage knows that his strength is not in recognition, but mainly in the connection he makes with the audience. In his new album Outsiders (2027), that connection remains central. A record for anyone who sometimes feels vulnerable, lonely, or an outsider and is looking for what holds us together despite everything. Instrumental music and narrative connecting texts alternate in a concert that feels like a confidential conversation. An invitation to listen, to dream, and to pause for a moment at what is moving out there.
