About Me
Inspired by the film "Fantasia," I first experienced the idea of connecting images with music as a child. After my piano lessons, I began composing, and, following the example of my inspiration, I paired my compositions with visuals, which I now showcase on YouTube.
The later discovery of the guitar further fueled my desire to write my own songs. From that point on, my daily routine was shaped by hours of practice. This dedication paid off, as I was able to perform on various stages with bands as a teenager, including at the "Rocken am Brocken" festival. Since then, I’ve been performing live with different groups and formations. Additionally, I regularly host private concerts in Wiesbaden, where musicians come together and create an engaging evening with a mix of musical styles.
As an instrumental teacher for guitar, bass, and piano, I’ve taught at the "Musikimperium Jonas" music school and the Mobile Music School of Hanover. To this day, I continue to pass on my knowledge through private lessons to many students.
My compositions have been featured as background music in various projects (such as in the gaming sector).
After successfully completing the Professional Guitar Program at the New Music Academy in Wiesbaden, I further professionalized my skills with a degree in electric guitar. My instructors included George Rademacher (Frank Out!, Karaoke Till Death) and Björn Müller (Völkerball, Frameless, Spitzbart). Additionally, internationally renowned guest lecturers conducted workshops, such as Guthrie Govan (Hans Zimmer, Steven Wilson), Victor Smolski (Rage, Almanac), Marcus Deml (Errorhead, Blue Poets), and Greg Koch.
In 2021, I launched my online music academy, "Creative Strings," where I provide helpful tips and tricks for guitarists. In spring 2022, I released my first video course, "Kreatonik – Getting Creative with Pentatonics."
In my solo project, I primarily perform guitar music. You can find my discography here.
After breaking my arm in an accident, I had to pause my guitar work. During this time, I discovered painting, and one of my artworks even graces the cover of the EP Better Times Will Come.
