Story 01 · Bali, You Became Home
The Night the
Island Hid Itself
Arriving in Bali at 3 AM
Mount Agung ash closes Bali’s airport. Three unexpected days in China lead to a late-night arrival in Ubud—and a warm welcome when the journey finally ends. Lucan’s second song tells a story of detours, kindness and finding your way, with warm vocals and tenor sax.
Story 02 · Bali, You Became Home
The First Faces
of Home
The People Who Welcomed Me to Bali
A morning in Ubud: sunlight through the curtains, breakfast by the pool, an offering and a family welcome. Warm vocals, tenor sax and a Latin-inspired groove bring the story to a terrace concert—where listeners become dancers, and an unfamiliar place begins to feel like home.
Story 03 · Bali, You Became Home
Bali, I Forgot
the Wind
An old kite shirt in Brussels sparks a bright idea for a beach in Bali. A playful song about big plans, grounded kites and learning to listen to the island.
Bali, I Forgot the Wind
