It all began, when he heard boogie woogie on the radio for the first time at age 13. He immediately quit his classical piano lessons and dove head-on into the world of blues and boogie woogie. In his first band a few years later, he also played guitar and harmonica besides piano and vocals. Later, he added the accordion in the cajun/zydeco style.
For nearly 10 years, Christian was the co-frontman of Vienna's Mojo Blues Band. Working with a long list of US-blues artists on their European tours has widened his musical horizon and made him an experienced player in several different styles of blues music. From 1993 till 2000 he took his own band Blues Wave on the road all over Europe, and released 4 CDs that received international critical acclaim. He won awards in Austria for "Blues Artist of the Year" and "Best Blues CD of the Year", and was nominated as "Best European Blues Artist" and "Best European Blues Singer" at the Trophees Blues France awards.
In the year 2000, Christian moved to the US to further his career. For 2 years he toured the world with Louisiana-based blues man Larry Garner, before settling in the Dallas/Ft. Worth, TX area. Here he has continued his solo-career and released his fifth CD "All Alone And Blue" in spring 2003, going back to his personal roots in solo piano blues and boogie woogie. This CD climbed to #3 of the KNON-Dallas blues charts in no time, received airplay on dozens of US blues stations, and critical acclaim in all major international blues publications. It also got Christian on the cover of the “Southwest Blues Magazine”. In spring 2008 the new CD “The Blues And A Half” was released, featuring Anson Funderburgh, Mike Morgan, Jim Suhler, Hash Brown and others.
These days, he performs mostly solo on both sides of the Atlantic, as well as with Texas blues-legends like Anson Funderburgh, Mike Morgan & The Crawl or Hash Brown & The Browntones.
