Hi

My name is Roman Nowka

I am a musician

From the first moment of my existence, life has been all about music. As a little boy, I would endlessly tap out beats on the kitchen table with my knife and fork—until my parents finally bought me a drum set. At the age of five, I got a guitar from my parents, my father, a classical guitarist, taught me how to play. When I was ten, I started taking drum lessons

I am not a man of many words

My language is music

I think about it constantly—from morning to night, and sometimes even in my sleep

I will never forget the first time I heard “Bad“ by Michael Jackson at the age of seven. That sound still blows me away to this day. Later, I discovered Thelonious Monk. His unique approach to music continues to inspire me

That my music has brought me this far, that my emotions are received with gratitude by so many people, and that I have had the privilege of playing all over planet earth with wonderful musicians —all of this fills me with immense gratitude

The guitar begins to tell stories, responding to the energy of a packed concert hall

And in those moments, I become that little boy again—a hall of mirrors filled with infinite possibilities.

They say, the sky is the limit

I say, there are no limits in the sky

Love

Roman
