The “Feel The Bass” show last Sunday was a huge success. Thanks a lot to all of you who visited the Schack booth. We are more than happy to get so much positive feedback on our basses, especially on our brand new features we showed there for the first time. That’s a great appreciation for what we are doing. Check out some pictures here

Schack Groove Session
As you probably know I am a huge fan and enthusiastic player of Schack basses. Schack Groove Session is a series of short videos that feature various bass players and their Schack basses to give you in impression on how these premium handmade instruments from Germany sound in different styles of music played with different techniques in the hands of different players. I hope you enjoy it! If you want to be a part of if, please contact Schack or me. Let’s groove!

9 out of 11
This is how I love it: in the end of June I played 9 shows within 11 days from Calw in southern Germany to Kiel in the very northern part of Germany. This meant about 2.500 km and long hours on the road but although it meant a lot of fun and great moments on stage with TRUE COLLINS, Miss Kavila and Traumbild, a new German pop act that I’m on promotion tour with currently.
The highlight for me was the True Collins show feat. The Brass-Connection at the end of this “tour” in my home area. Now I take a break from gigs until next Saturday…
Mariam Michael’s live debut
Last Tuesday we had a little gig with Mariam Michael & Band at the Orange Peel, Frankfurt.
We played to promote her debut single “Hot’n Tasty” which is available for download on iTunes and other major download platforms.
The response we got from the audience that night and later on is very promising and we are motivated to take the next steps…
Another appearance on German television
On Sunday May 17th I once again had the great pleasure to be a part of the backing band for Tom Gaebel and for Thomas Anders as well. Together with a bunch of very nice colleagues I had a lot of fun at these 2 appearances on the Sunday morning live open air TV-show called Fernsehgarten .
Musikmesse 2015
In the middle of April it was time for Musikmesse in Frankfurt again. For me the MarkWorld/Markbass – booth has been the place to be for many years. Like the years before I had a great time there meeting old friends and making new friends as well. You find some photos from the booth here.Thanks for visiting me and for checking out the new Markbass products. I hope to see you all again there next year!

Art On Ice 2015
From Feb. 4th – Feb. 7th I had the pleasure to play at the Art On Ice Golden Circle After Show Parties with the band Hot’n Cool in Zurich again. Art on Ice is the awesome interplay between Olympic and world champions on the ice and international music stars performing live on stage. This time Tom Odell, Marc Sway and Nelly Furtado where the musical top acts of the show. Check out some pictures here.
