DAVE METTE

Dave Mette (born in 1984) started playing drums at the age of 9 as autodidact on an instrument endowed to him by his grandmother. Born and raised in Marburg, he already had his first gigs as thirteen year old in the legendary jazz club Cavete. Shortly thereafter he and his band travelled throughout Germany "on a mission“ and thus spent the weekends more on the stage than on the football ground. After his A-levels he studied at the Pop Academy Mannheim at Prof. Udo Dahmen. Since 2005 he is part of the live band of Laith Al-Deen. For a couple of years now he also accompanies songwriters Philipp Poisel, Johannes Falk and L’aupaire. In addition to this and other jobs as tour musician he is also working as studio musician and has founded the musician commune „tonbiotop“ in Heidelberg together with friends and colleagues.
