CURRENT MISSION

Songwriter on Tour

ABOUT ME

I'm a touring songwriter, drawing from musical influences from my first travels in the states where I worked on Trail crews in National Parks .. mainly in Northern California .. also helped feeding and caring for timber wolves in Colorado .. loads of nature experiences .. not too many cities .. In Greece I sowed seeds on desert terrain, following the school of Masanobu Fukuoka, in Sweden and France I worked on farms .. in Spain I walked the Caminos de Santiago .. until finally I reunited with my home town, where I joined the international folk scene started playing music.

My ideas and songs still reflect on roadside experiences and walking many a trail. Thus, I call my songwriter project "Trailhead", which is what the Americans call the spot where a trail begins.

PHILOSOPHY

I am Jesus, I am John - my own salvation, my own song

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm on tour a lot, mainly in Germany, but also abroad. House Concerts are some of the best experiences I have as a perfoming musician.
I hope to find and meet people who are interested in hosting house concerts for folk and americana songwriters like myself.
