Nico, the lead guitarist, channels a blend of precision and passion rooted in classic traditions and shaped by years of experience. He began his musical path at age 12 with classical guitar training, building a strong foundation over five years. By 14, he had taught himself electric guitar and started playing in school bands, developing an early connection to heavier music.

In 2006, he joined the synth-pop/rock band Black Design, gaining valuable studio and live experience he still revisits today. Later, he performed with the Iron Maiden tribute band Tarantel, where he met Florian Jäntsch—an encounter that led him to Invoker in 2015.

Deeply influenced by old-school heavy metal, Nico brings a sense of melody, tradition, and timeless intensity to the band’s sound.
