André Mueller (aNDREmu) was born in Switzerland and
started learning classical piano at the age of 9.
He discovered the Beatles while listening to his fathers record
collection. Inspired by Paul McCartney, he soon found his love
for low notes and began to play the bass guitar.
In the following years he studied piano and electric bass with
various reputable Swiss musicians. In 1993 he moved to Vienna,
Austria, for one year to attend the American Institute of Music.
Shortly thereafter he switched to the University
of Music in Luzern where he was able to graduate in only
three years.
In 1997 he finally moved to Vienna. Searching for new musical
ideas, he concentrated on duo-work with different singers. Soon,
he felt that the sound-range of the 6 string bass guitar was
very limiting.
In 1998 aNDREmu found his ideal instrument - the Chapman Stick
- which exactly matched his sound ideas.
Today (as a multi instrumentalist on the Chapman Stick, Bass,
Piccolo Bass and Keyboards), he combines the natural sound of
his instruments with electronic music, especially regarding
song structures.
