Lionel Haas moved to Berlin at the end of 1999 where he began making a name for himself by performing in Berlin’s jazz venues. From 2000 until 2002, he worked part time as Internet Journalist at JazzRadio, Berlin interviewing local and visiting artists and writing features about them.

Since 2001, Lionel has toured with various projects in places like China, Ireland and Switzerland. Recently he has toured in Spain, France and Italy with the renowned blues artist, Big Joe Turner.

He formed the Lionel Haas Quintet in the spring of 2002, which features two-horn arrangements of his original compositions in the styles of straight-ahead jazz as well as groove music. The Lionel Haas Trio is his most recent project.
