Later that year, Poisel served as the opening act for Ane Brun, Maria Mena, Suzanne Vega, and Herbert Grönemeyer.

After a concert tour in the German-speaking region, Poisel worked on the production of his second studio album, Bis nach Toulouse.

In 2011, Poisel contributed his previously unreleased ballad "Eiserner Steg" to the soundtrack of the Matthias Schweighöfer-directed film What a Man, which was released on 26 August 2011.

After being performed by Benny Fiedler on the singing talent show The Voice of Germany in early January 2012, the song climbed from No.

On 16 September 2016, Philipp Poisel released the song "Erkläre mir die Liebe" as a preview from his third studio album.
