For those of you who don´t know much about me:
I´m a songwriter, a singer, often a „my own music producer“, play a few instruments and
I´m a dedicated performer (solo and soon with my band of friends called UNISOUNDWALLS).
I´m old fashioned in some ways and very modern in others. I love everything that comes from the bottom of hearts and guts. No matter if they´re lonely, up for a laugh, angry, whatever. If a true desire is being expressed that´s what art is, this is what life is to me and what it´s all about. To feel.

Here the attempt of a kind of bio:
As I´ve walked this world for a while now, I´ve already done a few things. Here among others some of them:
I recorded and performed solo as FRENK LEBEL, FRENK or just LEBEL.
BIG TIME was the title of the last single I released in the Autumn of 2006 under the name of LEBEL. It reached number four on the charts of FM4, Austria´s main alternative Radiostation and has been on high rotation for over four months now. It can be found on the FM4 Soundselection Vol.15. Appart from that BIG TIME is available on the internet in all major download forums but especially at the onlineshop of FABRIQUE RECORDS . Frenk Lebel was also the male singer and guitar player of MAURACHER in 2005 and 2006. (Featured in the video for the song HELLO)
Hubert Mauracher and I met as label mates and became friends long before we started working together. At the time when Hubert and I met, I was still in a popduo called PLAY THE TRACKS OF (together with experimental electronic sound artist WERNER MOEBIUS ).
PLAY THE TRACKS OF started in 1992 and went on for 12 years. One of the most memorable things of that period dates from 1996 when DAVID FRICKE, then editor of the U.S. ROLLING STONE magazine listed our album BEAUTY CASE as his favourite popalbum of the year. In on the production was Christian FENNESZ as a supervising producer. At that time Werner and Frenk lived in Berlin.
Frenk was in a grunge Band in Seattle/WA called ZIGFREID ZIENFELD at the very grunge aera in the early ninties. The band consisted of three members: Jack the drummer. ADAM EBENEZER JIMSON BOESEL (played bass and wrote the lyrics) and me, then Frenk (musical writer, guitar player, singer). That Band didn´t go anywhere but we had a great time togther. Adam and I are still friends. Met him again just recently when I had an appearance on a radio show in Seattle and a gig in Vancouver/Canada. We went out for some mediocre Thai food. But connection and conversation between us was excellent.
And also I´ve put my own band together THE UNISOUND WALLS. Co-members are ELOUI (bass and vocals), CHRISTOPH GRUBER (guitar and sounds) .
REINHOLD CARL SIEBERT & UNISOUND WALLS are currently working on the album DIAMONDGOLD.

At the heart of my work
Do I hear what I need to hear?
Do I speak what I need to speak?
Do I sing what I need to sing?
Are the little things I do a hologram of everything?
What is the question that lies at the heart of my work?
What is the question that lies at the heart of my work?
Do I do what to me seems true?
Or do I paint in brightest colours what´s already turned blue?
Do I see who I need to see?
Is the movie I am showing the story of who I really wanna be?
What is the question that lies at the heart of my work?
What is the question that lies at the heart of my work?
Is there a big within the small?
Is there a little seed within the very tall?
Is there a rise within the falll?
Are there just lonely single bricks or is there a unisound wall?
What is the question that lies at the heart of my work?
What is the question that lies at the heart of my work?
Is the question just one or are there many?
Am I the monk or am I the dandy?
Is there a difference between the one or the other?
Am I the father of my boy or the son of my mother?
What is the question that lies at the heart of my work?
What is the question that lies at the heart of my work?
Are these the questions that lie at the heart of my work?
This is the question that lies at the heart of my work
At the heart of my work
At the heart of my work
At the heart of my work
At the heart of my work
