ABOUT

*** UPDATE: I retired from playing in bands after playing for more than 30 years. I can say that my music income has increased in the absolute sense :) ***

I have been playing over 20 years. I have recording, gigging and touring experience. In my previous band I dealt with pretty much every aspect of the music business, from writing to tour booking.

Influences

The style I am into lately is Melodic Death Metal. My favorite bands include Mors Principium Est, Insomnium, In Flames, Omnium Gatherum, Arch Enemy and Amon Amarth.

I have also been influenced by a lot of speed/thrash/progressive bands in the past: Dream Theater, Megadeth, Queensryche, Manowar, Iron Maiden, Testament, Overkill, Metallica, Slayer, Helloween, Anthrax to count a few.

As a fan of dual melodic guitars, my previous cover band was an Arch Enemy cover band: Doomsday Machine https://www.facebook.com/ArchEnemyTribute/
