"Without music, life would be a mistake." - Friedrich Nietzsche

Felix Ambach

Felix Ambach, born in Bensheim (Germany), started his musical journey playing classical drums and percussion repertoire. He successfully participated in a variety of competitions focusing on this particular style of music. 
 After a few years of focusing on his skills as a jazz drummer, he moved to Cologne in 2016 in order to study with Jonas Burgwinkel. Very quickly he established a strong name as a supportive and reliable drummer with a strong, energetic and emotional sound, and soon he became one of the most demanded drummers within the local and national Jazz-scene. He has been playing with musicians like Pablo Held, Loren Stillman, Sebastian Gille, Felix Henkelhausen, etc.

He was the drummer of the „National Jazz Orchestra of Germany“ from 2017 to 2019, whereby he played tours in countries like Germany, Great Britain, Albania, Montenegro and Bosnia- Herzegovina. After his studies in Cologne, he moved to London in 2018, in order to study at the Guildhall School of Music with James Maddren and Stan Sulzman. In 2019, living in Cologne again to finish his studies with Jonas Burgwinkel, Felix is still deeply connected to the London Jazz- scene, playing with several bands consisting of musicians from all over Great Britain.

He was playing and touring in a broad variety of countries like Germany, Netherlands, Spain, Switzerland, Great Britain, Poland, Czech Republik, Montenegro, Albania, Bosnia-Herzegovina, etc.
