Severin Trogbacher

Name: Severin Trogbacher

Lives: Vienna

Instrument: Guitar

Musical beginnings: I received my first violin at the age of five, which I then chucked in years later for a grotty bass. This then had to give way a few months later to the instrument of my final calling, the electric guitar. The violin and the bass, together with a viola and some Jews' harps, kazoos and other frippery are still in my possession though, because I still haven't mastered the art of selling on eBay ...
2022 postscript: Almost the entire arsenal is back in action now!

Favourite music: The top five CDs (in no particular order): John Mayer - Continuum, Miles Davis - Live around the World, Erykah Badu - Baduizm Live, Dominic Miller - Second Nature, Me'shell Ndegéocello - Peace beyond Passion.

Guilty pleasure: "Sunday afternoon sports films". That is, anything where an (underdog) primary school team wins at football, a team of Scouts wins a canoe race, an alpaca becomes a figure skating champion. Alternatively, where a poor confused person can be put back on the right path, be it through time travel / body swap / reincarnation.
