Biography

When I was only a one year old, I had my first mandolin. That was very short music career because, I broke it quite fast. My first guitar I bought when I was 16 years old. I haven't been in any music schools. All my skills are results of self learning. I have listened music since I learned to use my ears. I was 10 years old when I figured that heavymusic sounds great. I liked the sounds of guitars and keyboards. Stratovarius was the first band to give me the dream of playing guitar and doing music. That was my dream for a long time. And years later I bought my first guitar and I started to learn how to play it. It was so damn difficult, and now It is more difficult than ever, but still I love to play it. My guitar is a part of my soul. Silent Threnody is my first band and I am very happy, that I have been given an opportunity to fullfill my dreams and be one with the music. That was a short version of my musical background, but I believe that you got the idea.
