Laurenz Thenu

Biografie

Laurenz Thenu was born in a musical family on the 2nd of april 1980. At the age of 15 he began singing in a gospel choir called Metanoia. A year later he started playing the guitar. He taught himself a few old school churchsongs and later on took lessons from Rene Schermer, who let him substitute in some gypsy jazz gigs. He played in a couple of bands doing pop/cover music, but it wasn't untill he was admitted to the Artez Conservatory Enschede in 2002, that he really started playing a lot in groups and in different styles of music.

Besides studying pop guitar with Gerard Peters, he also gained more knowledge about improvising, which has always been a strong interest on the instrument. In 2004 he took up playing bass and was able to do a minor course of bassguitar with Davy de Wit and later also with Rogier van Wegberg. Laurenz now performes as a bassist in groups such as Project '49, LeFinch and D-friends and playing the guitar in Papillion, Join Dilaja and others.
At the moment Laurenz is also refocusing on singing.
