"Searching for a bass with a brilliant, direct and - at the same time - warm and round sound, which offers a good slapping-tone and also a sensible sound for an acoustic environment, I found "Human Base" (Jonas 5 strings), which could fulfil all my expectations. The well-balanced sound, the perfect workmanship and the wonderful design convinced me immediately."

Uli Pfeifer about Human Base Instruments

As a child I discovered music playing the piano and my grandfather's violin, singing in a choir. I taught myself to play the guitar and at the age of 17 found the electric bass. At that time I joined lots of bands trying different styles of music. I combined my two great loves of art and music, when I studied art.
I met percussionist Anne Breick on 1992 and established the ethno-funk-formation "Kick La Luna". With this band we did a lot of live concerts, both in Europe and Internationally, cut 6 cd's and also television performances.
Since 2003 I have played bass, composed and sung in the new acoustic project "friends in high places" together with guitar player Oliver Kraus.
