Band/artist history

Music ruled my life since I can remember. When I was 8 I started lessons classical organ with Ger van Poppel for 10 years. That is the big fundation for everything I do since then.
After that I played in bands and became more and more symfonic on synths, organ and guitar. Played 17 years keys in progressive rock band Visual Blind and did some great gigs with it.
Other importend bands; Atra Lacrima (psychadelic, progressive rock, gothic metal, playing bass on my synths), Control (60s based pop), Cateye (where I played guitar from blues to funk to metal), Hypnoisers, a alternetive rock band with a little punk DNA and Just Jo, a pop/rock cover band, playing from Queen to Pink

I love this. Very inventive.

Good work. I find that with today's "web" of over choice it more than ever helps to start songs with a catchy hook.

Thank you, Brother. Much Blessing. Jesus
