Jochen

Jochen was born on a rainy day in June 1977. His interest in music was Awakened by heroic guitarists such as Jimi Hendrix, Frank Zappa, Steve Hillage, etc. At the age of 16 the urge to create his own music resulted in the purchase of his first guitar, and with 2 friends from school, he started the band The Druids. They evolved from a heavy psychedelic style to a tight and hectic sound like The Jesus Lizard and Unsane. Due to a lack of motivation of some members, The Druids disbanded and Jochen started looking for another band. Soon he was contacted by Sacramental Awakened, and after a few try-out rehearsals, he joined them. Jochen studied Philosophy (i.c. Artificial Intelligence) at the University of Ghent and now works as an IT Consultant in Brussels.
