Beige Wallpaper Biography
How does one describe a man, who can't be filed under any single category; whose immense talent really defies description in ordinary language; and whose artistic achievements are far, far too many for one tiny text box?! The man behind the music of Vanilla Moon, Beige Fish and Holland Avenue ...
John H. Schiessler, of Hungarian descent, was born in Frankfurt am Main, Germany, in 1956.
He received his musical calling at the age of twelve, while listening to Crosby, Stills and Nash .... his flash of light! At that point he decided to become a musician and learned to play guitar, piano and drums simultaneously! He was fourteen years old when he joined his first band, singing and playing the drums. The band was called Earthquake. "I guess we made some terrible noise," he laughs!
"Terrible noise" or not, he has never looked back. He has played and sung in many bands; written and performed chart-topping songs in Germany and Denmark; written scores for many German films (including "Der Grosse Bellheim", "Atomdorf" and "Gluecksritter"); worked as musical director for the dance theatre "Letters from Tentland" by Helena Waldman (which is still performing all over the world); not to mention over two decades experience, working as a professional photographer. Each project defining more and more the master of all forms of art, he has now become. From the life experience of this incredible man, one of the greatest musical talents in the world has emerged.
With this website, I hope to share the absolute joy his wonderful music; brilliant playing; and beautiful voice have given me ... in the forms of Vanilla Moon (World Music); Beige Fish (amazing Blues!); and now (teamed with John Buckley McQuaid) Holland Avenue. Nothing compares with the joy music brings ... and I hope as well, by way of thanks, that it also sparks interest in John's work; and helps in some small way to bring even more musical success to this amazing, world class musician. I wish him all the happiness and prosperity in the world!
