    The Trinity of Music, Lyrics and Visuality

 Band.


In times of enlightenment and upheaval, Romanticism emerged as a counter-design to the sober view of the world with pure reason. Out of the sometimes inhuman aberrations of revolutionary events, the "Grande Terreur" and the collective feeling of uncertainty about what would follow, dark romanticism was born, dealing with the abysses of human existence and the uncontrollable.

Who could deny that nowadays, in times of profound global changes, restrictions on personal freedoms and the worldwide rise of narcissistic autocrats, humanity is again at an uncertain crossroads?

Under this influence, three "brothers in music" have found each other with Trinity of Arts, who want to give musical, lyrical and visual expression to their perception of the world and the human condition.

Trinity of Arts are....


Andreas Unkel

Andreas Unkel

Drums, Percussion, Vocals

Andreas received his first drum lessons at the age of 9 in a marching band, where the budding drummers practiced together on a long wooden board until they sounded in unison. After two years and countless stacks of newspapers he had delivered, he was the proud owner of an old SONOR drum set from the 50s with natural skins and tarnished cymbals. He already accompanied several rock and blues bands during his school years.
Predominantly self-taught, he kept getting inspiration and knowledge from various teachers and workshops.
Stylistically open - from several rock genres to jazz, funk and blues - and with his musical drumming, he has been acting for many years as a session musician.
His university studies in philology and media science as well as his trainings as a multimedia producer and a screenwriter provided the basis for his artwork and writing skills.
The twists and turns of life are the source and inspiration of the poetry of his lyrics.
