THYMIAN effortlessly merges 80s New Wave with modern synth-pop. With themes of doubt, change, and fear, he uses his music as self-therapy, actively challenging stigmas. His debut EP, "THYMIAN," released in 2019, primarily explores themes of change. In his debut album, he delves into his fears and thoughts, daring to explore his inner world more deeply. The album "Rhythm of Doubt" captures the phenomenon of paralysis through analysis. Released in March 2022, "Landmarks – A Cover Collection" is an homage to a selection of THYMIAN’s favorite songs that have inspired his musical journey. The second EP, "White Knuckled," released on vinyl by Young&Cold Records, is the long-awaited follow-up to the debut album "Rhythm of Doubt." This EP combines the characteristic melancholic mood with 80s synth-pop and a touch of new romantic.
