Jens Kuross - Discovering True Artistic Motivation (#317)
Episode 317
Tuesday, 25 November, 2025
"For years, Jens Kuross operated in the shadows of the music industry—a talented session musician and songwriter in Los Angeles who eventually retreated to Idaho to become a cabinet maker, convinced that his personal music was destined to remain unheard. Sidelined by the scene and dropped by his management, Kuross believed his musical chapter was closed.The catalyst for his return, and the subsequent creation of his new album, ‘Crooked Songs’, was a serendipitous meeting in a Boise basement. There, Kuross opened for musician Hayden Pedigo, delivering a performance that struck Pedigo with immediate and profound emotional force.This pivotal moment led Pedigo to insist that Kuross capture that stripped-back, weighty, and sincere sound on record. The result is ‘Crooked Songs’, Kuross’s debut album for Woodsist.Co-produced by Pedigo, the album is a mysterious, warm, and deeply heart-stirring work. Kuross uses minimal instrumentation—primarily just his voice and electric piano, delicately enveloped by ambient synth—to enhance his minimalist approach. Tracks like the lead single, “Beggar’s Nation,” feel like the sound of an artist making music purely for himself for the first time.‘Crooked Songs’ is more than an album; it’s a testament to rediscovery. It is a collection of heavy, beautiful, and magical songs that may just find listeners precisely when they need to hear them most." -by James Broscheidhttps://www.jenskuross.com/Jens IG - https://www.instagram.com/jenskuross E A S T F O R E S TLIVE - https://eastforest.org/ticketsUpcoming,12-15 DEC Big Sur (retreat - sold out)20 JAN London (low ticket alert)23 JAN Dublin, IE28 JAN Amsterdam, NL01 FEB Zurich, CH05 FEB Berlin, DE13 AUG Snaefellsnes, ISTIX & INFO - https://eastforest.org/ticketsFILM - watch Music For Mushrooms exclusively at https://musicformushrooms.comLEARN - Go deeper with the Journey Toolkit - learn, expand, and grow: https://explore.musicformushrooms.com/journeykitJOIN - sign up now at https://www.EastForest.org - never miss an event or private offeringCOMMUNITY - Please support by joining our East Forest COUNCIL on Patreon http://patreon.com/eastforest.
