L’AUPAIRE releases his third album Drifting Singer-songwriter L’AUPAIRE (Robert Laupert) once again blends folk, pop, and blues into a distinctive sound on Drifting—honest, emotional, and rich in atmosphere. His raw, soulful voice carries songs that feel like musical postcards from across Europe. Lisbon, a duet with lúisa, evokes the melancholic warmth of Portugal; Flamenco is a passionate homage to Barcelona; and Tuscan Sun paints a vivid picture of sun-drenched Tuscany. Drifting was written during a challenging chapter of life—between the routines of family, FaceTime calls, and quiet nights after the children had gone to sleep. It’s an album about pausing, searching, and not always knowing where the journey leads—but that uncertainty is where its power lies. Featuring analog textures, acoustic instruments, and a tangible handmade feel, L’AUPAIRE draws inspiration from artists like Neil Young and Tom Petty while always staying true to his own voice. The visual design comes from artist Rosi Feist, who has created many of L’AUPAIRE’s single covers in recent years. The album artwork shows a stylized Southern European port city—minimal yet layered, just like the music itself. Since launching his music career in 2013—when he packed his studio into a van and moved to Budapest—L’AUPAIRE has established himself as a defining voice in Germany’s music scene. His work has gained international attention, with songs featured in films, on radio, and across major streaming platforms. With Drifting, L’AUPAIRE presents his most personal album to date—a collection full of depth, intimacy, and sonic warmth. A strictly limited, hand-signed vinyl edition will be released in calendar week 38.
