"I surrender If that’s the way it is I surrender

"I surrender
If that’s the way it is
I surrender
To the power of your kiss
Can I trust my heart?
When my mind has called it a fool
so many times?"

Surrender that has taught me more about myself than avoidance. Jumping into the storm, the fire, the pain only to discover that my whole life it was me and only me who caused me pain. Whether it was by not having clear boundaries and by saying yes to things and people that did not treat me well. The people that showed me just how badly I was willing to treat myself to get their love, approval and appreciation by tolerating behaviors that had nothing to do with love.

Yet for once and for all I felt the urge to explore the magnetism of an emotionally unavailable man that only pointed out my own emotional unavailabity to myself, and others.

It was a deep and profound journey thanks to which I have emerged a stronger, wiser and a more loving person - towards myself and others. Surrender to love, always.

The challenge of every artist, or a person who follows their dream, is to share their work with the world and at the same time remain free from whether their art, into which they poured their heart and soul, will get recognition and acceptance or not.

It was by letting (self)love take the lead in moments when I faced rejection or criticism that kept me going and that inspired Let Love.

Hi everyone, as you can see, the show in @musicon

Hi everyone,

as you can see, the show in @musicondenhaag will be postponed till 10 January 2021 due to current Covid regulations and resulting limitations in the Netherlands.

None of us likes it but to be on the safe side and also to be able to offer you a glass of wine or beer after 20:00, Musicon has decided to postpone the show. And righty so!

If you have already bought your ticket, you will be contacted by Musicon and given these options:
1. I will be there on 10 January
2. I can't/don't want to come and want my money back.
3. I will not come and want to donate the money to Musicon
Until everyone has been contacted, the Facebook event will show the old date (8 Nov) but the applicable date is 10 January. All the tickets that you buy on from now are for 10 January 2021.

From my side, I just wanna say thanks to everyone who has already bought their tickets and I look forward to playing for you all on 10 January, as long as it's possible for you to attend.

Thanks for your understanding and I look forward launching 2021 with a dose of good live music served to you in Musicon!

Stay healthy, think positive and test negative

Love

Petra

I could have never gotten anywhere without believi

I could have never gotten anywhere without believing in myself. I had had some achievements on the way but a couple of years ago, I started feeling like my musical career just wasn't going anywhere. I felt like I've tried just about everything and things didn't quite work out the way I wanted them to. I was seriously considering that it was the end. That that was it. That I was just gonna stay at home and play for the four walls. And I felt pretty sad about it.

Enter the scene - @baikamarajr - an old artist friend of mine from the time when I lived in Brussels. He happened to have a radio interview in Hilversum, so we met, caught up on life and music and things took turn for the better! Where I had no more steam to keep on going, Bai infused it with his enthusiasm and belief in me. I felt reborn, 'activated', supported, encouraged and most importantly I felt like someone truly believed in me and was supporting it with his actions.

The concept of "Surrender" live EP was born, Bai jumped on board first as an artistic advisor and then as the producer. And the rest is history. Every day I'm filled with gratitude for his support, especially during these difficult covid times when it takes some cajones to keep thinking positive while testing negative 😉

And so I want to thank you, Bai, from the bottom of my heart for being the wind beneath my wings when I thought I could no longer fly. You showed me that it wasn't the case. And now, during these trying times, we're gonna perservere once again and emerge stronger, better, smarter, kinder.

LET LOVE 🎬 - coming to you on October 30 🙂

Behind the scenes of "Let Love"

Surrounded by a great team of people who are dedicated, professional, loving, supportive is all that I could ever asked for when working on this, or any other projects.

It is the work of these 'invisible' people that makes it possible for you to enjoy the final result and for me to enjoy the process. Especially when you work on something that is so emotionally charged as music, you need to feel safe, encouraged and accepted. And I did!

So here's a shoutout to my camera, lights and sound team:

One of the greatest freedoms and a source of happiness I have found is freedom from the opinion of other people. “Let Love” speaks just of that…

Surrender - a word in the West often associated wi

Surrender - a word in the West often associated with giving up, a defeat or the raising of the white flag. The definition of the dictionary is “the action of surrendering to an opponent or powerful influence” or “stopping resistance to an enemy or opponent and submitting to their authority.”

From all of the above, there’s just one element that expresses the kind of surrender I’m talking about. Surrendering to the powerful influence - Love. An all encompassing acceptance. Not an enemy.

The ego loves to control everything. And while I like the idea that I am in control of my life, I also question that control.
Do I control my heartbeat? No.
My breathing? No.
Blinking of my eyes? No.
How about my subconscious behavior programmed by my upbringing, cultural and societal conditioning? No.

And if then my subconscious programming leads to my seemingly conscious choices of what I’m going to do today, where I’m going to go, who I will talk to and how, what I will eat etc. - how much of it is really my choice? When and where do I draw that line between choice and no choice?

I don’t necessarily have an answer to the last question but I have found that if I let go of trying to control everything, I live with less tension, I feel more relaxed, happy and let things flow more. The Chinese philosophy of Wu-Wei - freely translated as “non-forcing” refers to that very flow.

Eckhart Tolle says, “Surrender is to say ‘yes’ to life—and see how life suddenly starts working for you rather than against you.”

And that is the underlying theme of the upcoming EP and the state of mind in which I wrote it. Even the form of recording in which it took place - a live acoustic solo performance, stripped down of all the extras, just a pure surrender to the voice and the piano. Because perhaps in the end, where we thought we had control was only an illusion of it.

So stay tuned for more details about the release of the first single of the EP!
