prog

Progressive rock has been a defining part of my life for many years, both professionally and personally. As a host and behind-the-scenes production team member, I’ve had the privilege of working closely with some of the most influential festivals, artists, and publications in the genre.

From 2015 to 2024, I was the emcee of Night of the Prog at the legendary Loreley amphitheatre, introducing some of the biggest names in the scene. Beyond hosting, I’ve been deeply involved in the industry, collaborating with artists, working backstage, and connecting with key figures in the prog community. My experience extends into music journalism, artist management, and worldwide touring.

 

I continue my work in progressive music by currently contributing to festivals such as MidWinter and MidSummer Prog in the Netherlands, and Porto Prog Night in Portugal. Whether on stage, behind the scenes, or through the written word, my goal remains the same: to support and elevate the progressive rock scene in any way I can. Prog on!

I was invited to be a guest on the ‘Stone Prog’ podcast. We had a great time talking about my experiences in the prog scene, sharing backstage anecdotes, and discussing what it’s like working in the industry. Their podcast has also featured amazing guests like Marco Minnemann, RPWL, and many more in the past. Here it is, albeit in German:
