About me:


I was born January 16, 1976 in Bergisch-Gladbach, a small town close to Cologne, Germany.

I developed an interest in music during my early childhood, although, the thought of music as a career was not yet in my head. During my school years, Reggae, Dub, Hip Hop, Drum'n' Bass were always present. I visited every concert in my area and with the time, accumulated a sizeable CD and record collection. I was always open for all sorts of music! My attention was never limited to any particular genre.

After my education, was clear to me which must change something in my life. But first I crossed a deep valley. Music was at that time the only thing that truly interested me - saved to me the "life". Then one fateful day, as I strolled along the pedestrian streets in Cologne, I experienced a live didgeridoo for the first time. Previously, I had only seen the didgeridoo on television. The instrument fascinated me so much that I bought one right away and embarked on a musical journey that would change my life.

I spent all my available waking hours practicing and after just a few months began playing on the street. That was in 2006. It became clear to me that I wanted to do nothing else but play music.

-Since 2006 I play streetmusic regularly
-2007 I worked for the theatre"Die Baustelle" in Cologne
-2008 involved in a production (Trolle nach Irland/hearing book) for the West German Radio(WDR)
-2008 I played my first concerts. Solo and with "Muskat120"

I teach music, give Concerts and play Streetmusic whenever my energy and the weather permit. Street music was and is still an important point in my life. There is to me a new sense!
