Last years festival summer included a showcase at the FM4 Frequency Festival rockin the festival crowd until late...
He’s DJed alongside Funki Porchini, Amon Tobin, Aquasky, Will Saul and others.
Since 2002 Michael Holzgruber can also be seen as live drummer of I-Wolf (Klein records) and the electropop act Princess Him (Klein records). Together with I-Wolf he played live in clubs all over Europe and two very special showcases in NYC in 2004. Most of the live tour included his DJ Set after the show.
