Since an age of eleven years I am playing different instruments. It all started with the drums, followed then by the guitar, piano & bass. Last but not least I studied vocals for a while. My favourite musicstyles are all sorts of Classic-& Pop Rock. Beside of this I am a big fan of jazz and classical music. My first real steps in music business I took with my hardrockband ´ARREST´, formed at a very young age in the mid/end 90s. ARREST released several CDs (Incarcerated, The Difference and Night Stalker). If you got the pleasure to listen to some ARREST Songs, please take a look at Arrest
During the time ARREST stopped a bit their live and recording ambitions, between 2008 up to the end of 2018, I found time to realize my own ideas in the project ´SAGGATTARIA´. A fairy tale about life after death....
The Saga started on my first same titled solo CD, released November 2008 and it continued on the CD ´THE LAST DANCE´ (2011). My album ´SPIRIT`S FREE´ (2015) and honors Blues- & Classic Rock. After the blues period I returned to Classic-Rock with classical elements and traditional folk roots on the ´FIVE STEPS TO ZERO´ album. The actual newest ALWIN SMOKE release will be my Guitar-Instrumental Classic- Rock album ´SIX STRING STORIES´. It reflects my deep love to the stratocaster guitarsound. Look out at 12th Nov `21. Starting from March 2023 the first singles of my new CD album ´The Calm Inside´ are released. The complete album is shortly planed for 2023 / 2024.
