Chapter Isolation Berlin: Alternative guitar rock made in Germany

The use of music breaks through routines and creates new approaches to language. Whether beginner or advanced - learning is more fun with music. There is something for everyone.                                                                                                                         Isolation Berlin: Concerts and Workshops                           
The Berlin band "Isolation Berlin" toured Spain for the Goethe-Institut. The concerts were accompanied by workshops for and with students at the Goethe-Institutes in Barcelona and Madrid.

Alternative guitar rock from Germany
As can be easily guessed, the members of the band are from Berlin. They call their music "Protopop". What "protopop" sounds like is best experienced by listening to it. Above all, one thing is sure: The German lyrics captivate feelings: melancholy, longing, despair and anger.
In 2016, the band released their debut album "Und aus den Wolken tropft die Zeit". Right after, they went on tour to Spain and Portugal.
