Man on the Megatar

About Me

German artist, Dino Haak, a.k.a. "Father—The Artist" and Instant Guru—is best known for his work on the Mobius Megatar, an instrument of the Chapman Stick family also played by the likes of Trey Gunn and Tony Levin. Though Haak's music is mostly known for its groove-heavy, tight and hooky songwriting, the sound of his Megatar adds a powerful almost eerily symphonic element to the overall feel.Dino Haak’s legal move to the US from Germany was supported by well known players in the music industry such as Trey Gunn (King Crimson), Don Schiff (Pat Benatar), Greg Howard (Dave Matthews Band), Emmett Chapman (Inventor of the Chapman Stick) and others, who helped him to be awarded an Exceptional Artist Visa in 1999 and to finally choose the Northwest as his now full-time residence since 2000.
