He was born in 1979, raised on one hand by the Beatles, Stones and Doors listening father, but also influenced by his mum’s favorite tunes like James Brown, Jimmy Cliff and Rod Stewart. He made his way and became a drummer for both a band playing funk and the Blues Brothers Show. He soaked up the vibes of the 70s disco music, studied Jazz Drums in Würzburg and found his home in Upper Franconia, in a town called Forchheim, the Los Angeles of Bavaria.
