Biography
My Name is Thommy and "Projection" is my personal music project about the projection of personal lifetime experiences through the only tool I've ever learned to use: music.
Since 1999 I have created seven musical diaries. During this long period I was fortunately able to increase the number of listeners who were showing interest in my music. The lyrics are in most cases very personal and the music is influenced by Melodic Progressive Rock, Folk, New Art Rock, Psychedelic, Avangarde and sometimes by Singer/Songwriter-stuff or Jazz. In spite of all those influences I have tried to find my own style and hopefully I have developed some of my own trademarks during this long learning process.

I am recording my songs in my own little studio singing and playing all the instruments myself. The music itself is strictly handmade which hopefully preserves the "Life" and authenticity within the songs - and the errors, too ;-)



Me, the founder of Projection und the only member to date was born and raised in a small town in germany which should remain unknown to the rest of the world but became very famous due to a very old castle built by an emperor in the middle ages.

I got my first guitar at the age of 10 and I am still checking out how to play it. I started writing and recording songs at the age of 15, using two cheap little tape recorders. In those days I began to listen to bands like Pink Floyd, Genesis or Yes. Those heroes opened up horizons for me. I really liked the melange of the dynamic arrangements, dramatic chord progressions mixed with a lyrical content that was far behind of what could be heard in the charts in those days. A little bit later I discovered Jazz, Blues, Folk and.........Frank Zappa.

It is a fact that I played in a Punk Band at the age of 16 only for a short time. At the age of 22 me and a couple of other guys founded the band "Lamia". This was my first progressive rock band I played in. I was the guitar player and we were mainly covering stuff by Genesis or Emerson Lake & Palmer but also did our first attempts writing our own material. Unfortunately we didn't have much success and I quit the band in 1994, still dreaming of recording my own songs. It is absolutely true that I started playing drums in 1995 and one year later I returned to my old band as their new drummer. We constantly wrote our own songs and played in small clubs. One studio album and a couple of live-CDs were produced during that time. The band self destructed in 1999. In between I played in some other bands as a drummer but those connections always didn't last very long.....

After a short, dark period in my life I began to write songs and record them using a 4-track tape recorder and a computer. This was the time when "Projection" was born and shortly after the first album "Time Flies" was released. From this time on I have fully concentrated on writing and recording songs. Luckily, I was able to spread my little brainchilds to a small and still increasing group of true listeners. Over the years I have developed my experiences in songwriting, recording and producing. Besides I have constantly upgraded my recording devices with no end in sight.......
