Schlagwerk - Percussion handmade in Germany.
Axl Scheutz
Axl Scheutz is at home in the Austrian town of Bad Ischl.
The list of artists the charming Austrian has already performed with has a good ring to it:
Hans Söllner, The Buccaneers (roots reggae), DidgeGrooveCompany (world music), Stefan Schubert und die heißen Herzen (Deutschrock), Andrew Edge (Britpop) and many more.
Currently, Axl Scheutz is working for, and with, the British musician Brian Leonhard, who is recording a solo CD at the studio right now. Further ventures are already on the waiting list: a video production featuring the cajon as well as a great number of projects in collaboration with the most diverse musicians in a most varied range of styles.
