Fabian Jozsa grew up in Hungary in a family where music was always present. He began playing piano at an early age and picked up guitar at 12, eventually studying classical guitar and later jazz. In high school, he formed a serious band with his friends that was preparing to be considered for a record deal. However, his musical journey took a detour when he moved to the USA during his college years, stepping away from the band and his dreams at the time.
An IT professional by day, Fabian reignited his passion for music by performing with coworkers who shared his enthusiasm. Since then, he has played with various groups, connected with the management of Angels on Fire, and recently joined the band, bringing his technical expertise and creative energy to the stage.
A devout connoisseur of neoclassical and progressive metal, Fabian enjoys writing songs, collaborating with fellow musicians, and teaching guitar. While rock and metal are at the core of his musical style, he also enjoys exploring and performing a variety of genres, blending elements of different musical traditions to create unique fusions.
