«Norman Palm lives in Berlin and his shows are something unique. Not only can he play the guitar and sing, but he can draw and design splendidly. For every song, a very special visual track is projected onto the back of the stage wall; so the sad songs become even sadder and the happy ones even happier.
How convincingly sad and happy are Norman Palm’s songs? – Without management and with only one release so far (the wonderful 7” single of two cover versions: The Cure’s «Boys Don’t Cry» and Cindy Lauper’s «Girls Just Wanna Have Fun») invitations rained on him. Palm was asked to perform in Mexico City, in Berlin, Berlin, Berlin, in Helsinki, Paris and Vienna. He has also stolen himself airplay on good radio stations like Berlin’s MotorFM, Vienna’s FM4 and LA’s KCRW .»
