Cuba, Photo-Exhibition and CD-Release-Party

Tomorrow I will be drinking rum and smoking a Cigar in La Habana!
Goodbye grey and dark Berlin, hello 30 degrees, Coconut-Trees, Beaches, Music, Photos and
new inspirations.
The photos will be exhibited in a very cool gallery in Berlin starting the 5th of february next year. At the vernissage i will also be playing beach-flavoured PopMusique with my Band "Valeron + the Coconuts" and celebrate the release of our debut CD "Horizons Nouveaux".
I have to go back packing, more infos soon, but reserve the date!

haven't been posting photos a lot lately. I have been focussing on making music with my band Valeron and the Coconuts performing live and lately started recording an album which should be released in september and contain some tasty pop music . working really hard on it so not taking a lot of pictures, except the following ones.

French Alpes '09

Back in the city after 12 days with the family in the french alpes: fresh air, nature, sunshine, hiking and going to bed early, happy. Spent a perfect holiday, I'm regenerated and full of energy for the projects to come.

News july 09

sorry for those who've been visiting the blog the last days i was quite busy with my projects:
The first complete gig of my band "Valeron & the Coconuts" (www.myspace.com/valeronmusic) at Madame Claude in Kreuzberg was a great success: lot of fun, fantastic atmosphere and very positive feedback, felt good :-) more gigs to come soon, looking forward to it.






I also started a job as "location scout", spotting nice cafés, bars etc in Kreuzberg and taking pictures which is actually quite fun, i dicover new places and get to practice to take pictures inside..
