 Ralf Ralle Fricker

Drummer · Percussionist · Composer


My study time...At the age of 12 it became obvious to me to follow the "path of the drum". At that time we established a group and we got going. We were teaching ourselves in playing our instruments.

On several suggestions of famous drummers like Jackie Liebezeit (Can),Dai Bowen,Charly Antolini and others I made up my mind to carry on playing the drums more like a professional. Günther Kamp (Music-School Ravensburg) managed to teach me the basics of drumming.Now I went out into the world of professional music.
