Nicolai Funch moved to the capitol of Denmark, Copenhagen, to persue his dream of making a record. So he left everything behind and found himself quite lonely away from his family and close friends. For a year he lived in Copenhagen and wrote the songs for the album Hooked, songs about the price of freedom and the need to have people who depend on you. "The only thing I wanted with this record was to be true to the songs and the music", therefore Nicolai recorded and arranged Hooked live in the studio to get the intimacy that you often hear in old jazz recordings.
