About Us:
It all started back in the end 60s and
beginning 70s when I started with my
music. After playing in several bands
in the Krefeld/Germany area like Neewa
Rock Band, I decided to go abroad for
a while and playing street music in
Southern Europe, espcially in Greece,
Northern Africa and Middle East. But
also in France, Belgium, the
Netherlands, Luxemburg, Austria. While
travelling as a back-packer I had the
chance to meet many musicians from all
over the world and and improve my
musical horizon. I started writing my
own songs then. Of course my major
influences are the folk based
musicians of the sixties and seventies
like Dylan, Neils Young but also
Blues, Rock and Jazz music had a big
impact on my song writing.
I have to admit that I never got any
lessons on the instruments that I
play, I am an autodidact. Anyway, I'm
trying to play for many yeearsbut am
still a dilettante.
I use to record my songs at home, I
have one room just for my music. I
record mainly on weekends because my
profession doesn't give me much time
for my passion.
