I’m Stephan Ebn – drummer, music producer, and bandleader based in Abensberg, Bavaria, active in the international music scene since 1997.

After earning dual diplomas in jazz drums from the University of Music in Nuremberg, I’ve worked worldwide as a touring and studio musician, producer, and musical director – from Nashville to Milan, pop concerts to film scores, and jazz ensembles to children’s music.

I’m the drummer and programmer for Middle of the Road since 2006 and have collaborated with artists like Gianna Nannini, Lynn Anderson, Saragossa Band, and Kimberley Dahme (Boston).

Since 2008, I’ve also been the drummer of the Midnight Story Orchestra – a unique jazz/fusion band that creates live audio dramas, combining music and storytelling in an immersive concert format. We tour regularly with this project across Germany.

In the jazz field, I’ve performed with Wolfgang Lackerschmid, Bill Molenhof, and others, and lead my own projects like STARBUST, the Stephan Ebn Band, and the genre-bending Balkon Jazz Ballett.

As a producer, I work from my fully equipped studio in Abensberg — producing music for children’s artists (Rodscha aus Kambodscha & Tom Palme), Comedians (Martin Frank, Sarah Hakenberg), and film soundtracks like Trans Bavaria, Mia and Me, and The Vexxer. I’m also co-founder of the indie label Magic Mango Music.

My approach spans jazz, pop, children’s music, film, and cross-genre performance formats.

Let’s shape your sound together — live, in the studio, or beyond.

Get in touch – I’d love to hear from you.
