For the first time in the history of Der Berlin Salon, a live act set the mood for the exhibition at the beginning of Fashion Week. The artist LIAS created a moment of contemplation with his melancholic indie-pop ballads. In a live acoustic set, his songs accompanied on the piano invited the guests of Der Berliner Salon to set aside our inner heaviness for a moment to raise awareness and gratitude for the beauty we are privileged to surround ourselves with.

The singer-songwriter from Berlin with Dutch roots, who completed a classical vocal training, already stood as a boy soloist with world stars such as Jose Carreras or the orchestra of the Bavarian State Opera in Munich on the great stages of this world. But the desire to break out of the usual conservative paths and express his inner world brought him to songwriting – and after detours also to the stage with his own music.
