How long have you been playing?
I've been writing, singing and playing my own music for a long time - since I was 12. Now I'm almost twice as old and still enjoying the process of writing and singing.
What was the first concert you ever went to?
The very first concert I went to was... ehmmm.... Jana Kirschner in 1999. She's a great Slovak singer and I enjoyed it very much.
What gear do you use?
Well, I'd say I use a little software where I mix my own guitars and keyboard melodies with some beats.
Who was your biggest musical influence growing up?
My biggest influence comes from pop/soul. I can say I like a motown sound a lot. I grew up listening to various LP's, which my father played quite often like The Beatles, Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, etc. My own first real influence was a band called Shakespears Sister. Then I discovered Eric Clapton, Marcella Detroit, Bryan Ferry and it was clear what I wanted to do. And Leonard Cohen as well.
Are you in a band? Have you been in bands?
I have never been in a band, but I dream of having one, that could play my music live & loud!
If you could jam with anyone, who would it be?
Sounds like a question about my dream band, lol. That would be: Eric Clapton, Marcella Detroit aka Marcy Levy, Bryan Ferry, David Bowie, Norah Jones... all my favourite artists. I'd like to join them on stage one day. Mr. Slowhand and Marcella Detroit rule for sure!
What's the biggest audience you ever performed to? What's the smallest?
LOL :) The biggest and the smallest audience in the same point were my 7 or 8 poor classmates during a school trip. I was horrible, so sorry for that! :))) In fact, I haven't performed in front of the larger audience. But some day I will!
You're stuck on a desert island and only get to bring one album with you. What do you pick?
Pheew.. I'd take dozens of albums. One of the first albums I bought was "Hormonally Yours" from Shakespears Sister. This album is timeless, imo. But I may take my usb key with many GB of music I love. :)

"Fly With Me" is a song I wrote back in 2008 (I think), originally it is a song in Slovak language, but some friends wanted to know what it was about. So I wrote the English lyrics and recorded it again, some time later. There are 3 versions of the song: piano version, guitar version and a remix.
