About Me

I was born and raised in and around munich. after studying theatre and costume design in munich (akademie der bildenden künste) and london (university of the arts/central saint martins), i now work at varioust theatres in the munich area as a freelance set and costume designer, but my passion still lies with musik.early on I found interest in "sound" and started singing jazzy tunes. my music comes from a collection of poems which I wrote when I was a teenager. whithin a couple of weeks and the help of Ralph Bojen (guitar and lead singer of "the congress") a number of moody songs with feeling and rhythm transformed into something that goes beyond what jazz-pop has in store. the main focus of this project is on authenticity and simplicity. everything is composed to be easily replayed live on any stage- PURE MUSIC -the songs for the album "memories for sale" were all composed out of the mood of summer 2004. our first live-gig was at the end of that summer at the Jazzbar Vogler in munich and hopefully we will be recording soon and playing some more live gigs...I edited my profile with Thomas Myspace Editor V4.4 (www.strikefile.com/myspace)
