In 1997 he did his first solo album calls "Four seasons of life" with the guest musicians Ralf Scheepers (Vocals on Track 07)and Axel Rudi Pell (Guitars on Track 02).
2 years later (1999 he realased his second solo album with name"Kaleidoscope"
Since than Roland worked with many great artists and gave his amazing and unique sound to many bands.
Him and drummer Ulli Kusch were with the German melodic metal band Helloween until autumn 2001.
Shortly after they make up togetherMASTERPLAN, a band that have drawn attention to themselves even before the arrival of their debut album.
The band made very good impression with their two albums;Masterplan, 2003 and Aeronautics, 2005.
Masterplan, Aeronautics and MKII has reached great press reactions!!
