ABOUT US

Strich

We are a rock band that was formed in its current lineup in 2023. In addition to our influences from The Rolling Stones, Aerosmith, and Red Hot Chili Peppers, we also draw inspiration from other music of the 60s, 70s, and 80s, that's why ZZ Top and Bruce Springsteen can also be heard quite often with us.

​

The band was formed by the two original members Sandro (lead guitar) and David (bass), who, at the end of 2022, with a completely different lineup, aimed to put together a band and create music with it. After their first performance on December 7, 2022, the guys decided to keep going. The band went through ups and downs, facing many challenges, and frequently changing band members, until the lineup was solidified in the fall of 2023. This lineup now represents the defining faces of the band. With Marina on vocals, Johannes on drums, and Vlad on rhythm guitar and piano, the band has reached its best performance. Many concerts, where the band gave their best, have been heard in some great locations over the past years.

 

 

 

Here are the band members:

​

SANDRO

Sandro is the lead guitarist and founder of the Ramblers. When he was given the opportunity to form a band as part of a school event, he accepted the challenge and showed off his skills. After the school event, he decided to continue the band and formed the Ramblers. Since then, he has played countless gigs with his band. Bands such as The Rolling Stones, Aerosmith, Guns N Roses, Metallica, White Snake and Bruce Springsteen play a decisive role in his playing style. His signature guitar is a Maybach Lester in midnight sunset.

DAVID

David started playing bass when he was 14 years old. Shortly after he began playing, Sandro asked him if he wanted to perform at a school event. David gladly accepted and quickly realized that he and Sandro shared the same vision and approach to music. After the school event, they decided to continue and form The Ramblers. Since then, they have played countless gigs.

David draws a lot of inspiration from various bass players. Darryl Jones, Alex John Such, and Tim Commerford have had a significant influence on his playing. Most of the time, he plays a Sire Marcus Miller V7 modified with Bartolini pickups.

MARINA

The singer of the Ramblers is the talented Marina Zniva. Music has always played an important role in her life. She began her musical career on the cello, but soon discovered the power of her voice. After several years of singing lessons, she was given the opportunity to take on the role of lead singer in the band. She has already played some great concerts with the band, like the one in Pörtschach this summer. Marina inspires with her showmanship and draws people into the music like few others.

JOHANNES

 Johannes is the outstanding drummer of the Ramblers, who joined the Ramblers by a happy coincidence. He quickly proved his ability and years of experience on the drums. Not only does he play an important role on the drums, but also around them. With him, the Ramblers have gained a man with technical experience who plays an important role in the sound department. With his musical interest and ability, Johannes provides the perfect platform for the Ramblers.

VLAD

VLAD, the band's rhythm guitarist, pianist and backing vocalist, takes on some important roles in the band. In the summer of 2023, he joined the band in the wake of a former member and has been a permanent member ever since. His playing style, inspired by pop greats and his preference for acoustic guitar, characterise his sound significantly. VLAD is not only a key player on the keys or rhythm guitar, but also in the production area. With his years of experience in production, he offers the Ramblers the perfect advantage to record their own songs quickly and with high quality.
