Two sides of the coin. Two languages. Two EPs. BELQIS has always known how to wander between worlds and show that she prefers musical diversity to pigeonholing and occupying a niche. In December 2023, she released her album ‘Sleepwalking’ with the help of a grant from Initiative Musik - a fusion of her German EP ‘Illusion’ and the English EP ‘Insomnia’.
In her songs, darkness meets light, urban beats meet indie pop guitars and delicate harmonies with epic orchestral instruments meet harsh new noise sounds. Not only musically, but also visually, BELQIS shows that, as an absolute DIY artist without a record deal, she can keep up with the big names of the German poetry scene such as LEA, Marie Bothmer, Madeline Juno or Antje Schomaker with her creativity and flair for dramaturgy. For each song on her EP ‘Insomnia’, she shot her own visualiser, which shows her in various scenes of sleeping and waking moments in different places - in a club, in the bedroom, in the forest and even on the water.
„Träumen ist BELQIS’ Spezialgebiet – das legt das Album „Sleepwalking“ nahe, das die Frankfurter Indie-Künstlerin soeben veröffentlicht hat. Vom traumhaften Verliebtsein bis zum albtraumartigen Absturz erzählt die 27 Jahre alte Musikerin auf ihm, was sie bewegt.“ – Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung (Stella Lorenz / 04.01.24).
With her German-English repertoire, she has already played at festivals such as the Maifeld Derby, Trebur Open Air and Karben Open Air and is committed to increasing the visibility of female* artists - e.g. at event formats such as Fem*Night Frankfurt or the anniversary of Büro F in Wiesbaden.
Live, BELQIS captivates the audience with her mix of emotional songs and relaxed anecdotes, creating a special atmosphere and an intense concert experience.
