Andreas Dopp
is a versatile, seasoned thoroughbred musician: club concerts and tours, studio sessions, theater and musicals are in his CV. Among other things, he was a longtime member of the Ina Müller band and played concerts with Annett Louisan. He played in the Best of The Threepenny Opera with Dominique Horwitz and most recently as a permanent member in his Jacques Brel program. Andreas writes music for Reinhold Beckmann and plays guitar in his band. As a studio musician he played for numerous film scores, most recently for The Physician.

Perhaps it is because of the immense recognition he already has from his copious engagements that for his first album Andreas entirely avoided a demonstration of his virtuoso skills on the guitar and instead demonstrated his abilities as a composer and arranger. The album sounds mature, the melodies are catchy without in the least being trite, and every time you listen you discover precious new details. Taiga Taxi takes us on a wonderful journey through the inscape.
