Musical career debuts
After his first musical experiences at age 15 as drummer in a local rock band, Adrian started to compose music. It wasn't possible for him to compose music and remain with the band as drummer, so he left, simultaneously buying his first guitar.
From 2007 to 2009 he recorded countless demo songs under the artist name "Indigo", in which his guitar would get replaced increasingly often by keyboard and orchestral arrangements of which he grew to favour. In 2008 his music was released into the world for the first time as he set up an account on the social networking site, Myspace.
After dropping the Indigo pseudonym in 2009, Adrian set the trend of releasing albums annually. 2010 saw the release of two albums, Requiem and Lifeclock, and in 2011 Wanderer, Across Acheron and Mirror of the Night are released. By the end of 2012, Adrian had released five more albums: Mortulia, Spellbound, The Celtic Collection, Starchaser and Odyssey. During 2013, Adrian released Feather and Skull and Vagabond. In March 2014, his album, Libertas, was released, and on October 2014 Queen of Thorns was released. Finally in 2016 he released his latest album "Moonsong".
