For more than 18 years Frankfurt/Germany-born Markus Rill has been proving that you don't necessarily need American genes to write & sing authentic, first-rate folk & country songs. Germany's finest and most consistent Americana artist is winning over an ever-expanding audience with his multitude of projects, has earned great international recognition, and has still stayed true to himself in his desire to evolve as an artist. It should come as no surprise then that his tenth album of original songs raises the bar yet again. Dream Anyway is an amazingly varied album with crisp and brilliant sound that presents a mature musician with deeply moving songs and rock'n'roll appeal at the height of his musical prowess. Dream Anyway combines the best aspects of Wild Blue & True (singer-songwriter, Americana, folk, roots) and My Rocket Ship (team play, roots rock, rock'n'roll) and brings them to a new level. Clearly, Markus Rill has found the key to clearer melodies, hookier choruses and catchier riffs. In a better world you might even speak of hit potential … Moreover, the (reshuffled) Troublemakers are a remarkable outfit with a wide array of instrumental and vocal abilities - no outside contributions were necessary for this album which was recorded in only eight days at 7V studios in Bockenem/Germany.
