-------------> My new Album <-------------

GOOD THINGS CAFE

is here
Hello there. You can listen to the entire album - just press play in the upper left corner, that's all there is to it. Or download it for free, no strings attached. And if you like it, spread the word. After all, what good is a musician without an audience?
Feel free to watch some videos of me performing songs from the album. Or read a brief making-of essay or browse the lyrics or drop me a note or sign up for the newsletter.
I'm looking forward to sharing my music with you.
Take care.

Who is Tobi Lessnow ?

>>>> Singer, Drummer etc <<<<

I started out as a singer and a drummer and over the course of time picked up other instruments like the guitar and the piano.
I suppose I could call myself fairly open minded when it comes to music. So since the early days I've been criss-crossing the genres from jazz to rock, from electronic to hardcore, from reggae to new music. Besides playing in numerous bands, I studied music at the university, did a few stints at the theater/opera and had a couple of studio gigs here and there.
Most recently in addition to my album I did some work on a film score and I have been playing with The Dorf, an eclectic big band
firing on all stylistic cylinders. Then there is sub.vision, a 5-piece combo oscillating between trance and jazz rock. Furthermore we have made plans to relaunch Transwagon, a dear band of mine. So stay tuned.
To get a taste of my drumming in it's purest form, visit me here. If you like what you're hearing and are interested in a collaboration you are more than welcome to drop me a line.
I almost forgot: apart from being a musician I'm also a passionate graphic designer. I find that design is the perfect supplement to my music.

Push the red Button

The essence of a song

I find it fascinating to approach a song from different angles. Every interpretation brings you closer to the essence and you really get to know the song's character. A full blown arrangement or a version stripped down to the essentials - I love them all.
