I WAS BORN MARCH 23 1972 IN HOLYWOOD N, IRELAND.
I WAS BROUGHT UP ON ELVIS, BUDDY HOLLY, MERLE HAGGARD GEORGE JONES & WILLIE NELSON.
MY PASSION FOR DRUMMING CAME TO THE FRONT WHEN I WOULD BREAK MY MUMS KNITTING NEEDLES & RUIN THE FURNITURE WITH CONSTANT HAMMERING.
I JOINED MY FIRST BAND AT THE AGE OF 12 & HAD MY FIRST GIG AT 13.AS I GREW UP MY INFLUENCES WERE BANDS LIKE U2,INXS, METALLICA,THIN LIZZY,RUSH & QUEEN.
BACK THEN I FELT A LITTLE DIFFERENT FROM MY BAND MEMBERS BECAUSE OF MY WIDER TASTE IN MUSIC. KNOWING THAT COUNTRY WAS MORE THAN JUST YEEHAA! & DOGS DYING, I JOINED MY DAD ON DRUMS & WE WERE A VERY SUCCESSFUL BAND IN OUR OWN RIGHT.
MY PASSION FOR SINGING STARTED TO EQUAL THAT OF DRUMMING, BUT I HAD TO WAIT UNTIL MY VOICE BROKE! & BROKE IT DID!( “a chip off the old block” it has been said ).
MY MAIN INFLUENCES NOW ARE THE MORE MODERN STYLE OF COUNTRY LIKE GEORGE STRAIT, TIM MCGRAW, BROOKS&DUNN KEITH URBAN,GARY ALLAN & GARTH BROOKS.
I TRY TO EMULATE MY DAD IN HIS APPROACH & PROFESSIONALISM TO HIS MUSIC, (IM A MODERN VERSION OF THE BOSS MY DAD).

I’ve been a music journalist for more than 10 years. Over the years, many artists and managers have asked me what the best way to break into the European music market is.
Here are some things you can do:
Publish artist press releases, news, and tour dates to the CountryHome Forum on MySpace, http://groups.myspace.com/CountryHomeMagazine , CountryHome Forum is part of CountryHome, http://www.CountryHome.de , Germany's Premier Country Music Online Magazine. Everything you publish to the CountryHome Forum will be published in my weekly Newsletter which has over 80,000 readers.
Send me CDs and DVDs for review and set up an artist interview with me. All reviews and interviews will be submitted to the magazines I'm writing for. More information for which magazines I'm writing can be found at http://www.MySpace.com/ChristianLamitschka
Upload artist videos to http://www.MyVideo.de and http://www.ClipFish.de . Both websites are like http://www.YouTube.com and uploading videos is free. The websites are completely in German. If you don’t speak German and need assistance, I will help you open an account and upload a video for 25 Euro. Each additional video upload for the same artist name and at the same video website is 10 Euro.
If you have more questions about the European music market or about any of the information I send to you today, please contact me at Ch.Lamitschka@t-online.de too.

CountryHome Forum have more than 5,800 members. Each news you submit to CountryHome Forum will released to my weekly Newsletter with more than 60,000 readers.
Please submit your artist news and events to CountryHome Forum to help your artists to get well known better in Europe. If you do not have the time to submit your artist news and events by yourself, please send it me to: Ch.Lamitschka@t-online.de and I will submit them by myself to CountryHome Forum.
I know that many artists from North America don't have their music videos uploaded to German video websites. The most popular websites are MyVideo.de and ClipFish.de. That means your European audience does not have the chance to find them.
I understand that most of you don't speak German and are not able to upload videos because of the language barrier. If you would like me to upload your videos to the German video websites, please let me know.
Thanks
