Johannes "Jo" Willinger was born in Heidelberg, Germany in 1990. From an early age he enjoyed the drums and, after destroying hundreds of pairs of wooden spoons, Johannes Willinger began taking lessons at the age of eight. In the following years he joined the local orchestra and drum ensembles.
He listened to the music of other musicians and learned to play with them. At the age of 15 Johannes Willinger met Olli Roth. After becoming acquainted with each other they started to play shows together.
Now Johannes goes "on the road" with many different artists, including Ina Boo, Cris Cosmo, and Burnin Friday.
He is sponsored by Wahan Drums, Istanbul Mehmet and Protection Racket.
