Hey there, my name is Niels Cremer, I'm a singer-songwriter from Munich/Germany playing original Americana Folk-Rock music. I have just released my five-track debut EP "Seed, Creed & Generation" which was recorded and produced by Atze Ton of Atzeton Musikproduktionen here in Munich.

I spent many years living, working and playing music in Asia before returning to Germany, where I initially supported Marybeth D'Amico on double bass, acoustic guitar, mandolin, blues harp and vocals before concentrating on my own songs and my career as a singer-songwriter.

I self-released my debut-EP "Seed, Creed & Generation" in August 2009 and was offered a distribution deal with German indie-label Timezone Records who have been ditributing the EP both physically and digitally since March 2010. I hope to be able to reach as many people as possible with my music, hope you'll enjoy it too!

In October 2009, my song "I'll Take The Early Train" was voted a Finalist among the top 5 songs in the Folk-category of the International Song Of The Year Contest, a songwriting competition based in Houston/Texas! :-)

More here, here and here.

Beautiful song. Well done Niels!

Nicely done. Beautiful song. Kid's up front seem to be into it. Which is a good sign because kid's are great critics. They tend to be more honest with their opinions.

This is an animated video for the song "I'll Take The Early Train" which was published on my debut EP "Seed, Creed & Generation" in August '09. I used GoAnimate.com for the animation, my first attempt, took ages but was a lot of fun - enjoy! :-)

Niels , normally I would say the last thing needed is another Christmas song. Your original however proved me wrong once again. We really do need a new Christmas song, but it has to be a really good one. Thanks for the good one.

It's a Tacoma Thunderchief. The real secret is the Fender flat-wound nylon strings. It gets pretty close to stand-up sound with the right amp & thumb.
