FREDDY BATTEUR

Music brings me up and makes me feel good. The first contact with my main instrument, the drums, was through my father as he was a popular jazz- and big band drummer.

​

At the early age of 10 yrs, I've had my first experience playing with professional musicians (my father's colleagues) on a really big stage after their rehearsal. That was a real punch for me to start my own musical career.

​

So when I was 14, I started a band project named "Stonehenge" with some school friends playing R&B. Young and wild I started working as a studio drummer and my first experience as a session player was in Saba Studios in Villingen/Germany. Shortly after that I produced my first song in Zucker Fabrik/Stuttgart when I was 19 years old.
​
Today, as I love music in general and not styles or genres I've played, experienced and enjoyed a lot of different styles like pop, rock, bossa nova, samba, big band, new wave and fusion. Out of that I gained a broad wide spectrum of inspirations for future projects.
​
More recentely, my "new love" is playing keyboards, composing and songwriting. But hey, I'm still drumming the "Space Funk" and the "Jungle Beat"!
