Music is the greatest feeling in the world for me.

Music is the most universal language and has the power to connect people – no matter where they come from. It’s a language everyone understands, even without ever having learned it. Of course, some people study it and end up on stage. Others just listen, yet still have an inner ear that allows them to truly feel and understand it.

For me, it was the bands of the ’60s and ’70s that – somewhat paradoxically – accompanied me through my youth (I’m not that old!). But I listened endlessly to Led Zeppelin, Deep Purple, Cream, Hendrix, Blind Faith, Joe Cocker, the Beatles, the Stones, the Small Faces, and many more. The guitar parts especially fascinated me as a kid. I wanted to play like that – and sound like that.

When I started out, the internet barely existed. I’d stand in front of my stereo with a CD and try to copy what I heard on my guitar – until it sounded the same (at least to my ears back then!). That was what motivated me.

I just kept going, until I eventually realized that I didn’t want to live without music anymore – I couldn’t.

So I studied guitar. And now here I am: writing my own songs and trying to make the world a little more beautiful through music.

I am available as Guitar player (E/A), Bass player, Producer, Recording/Mixing/Mastering.
