It is with immense sorrow and heavy hearts that we bid farewell to Andrej.
From the very beginning, Andrej was the heart and soul of our music, crafting nearly every instrumental track across our five studio albums. His creativity knew no bounds; he was a relentless fountain of ideas, always surprising us with fresh riffs and melodies. We will forever cherish the moments when he shared his latest creations, transforming them in rehearsal into the songs that defined us. Those countless hours spent together—playing, listening, debating, and immersing ourselves in music—are now priceless memories. Andrej lived and breathed music, and his passion inspired everyone around him.
Beyond his unmatched musical talent, Andrej was the architect of our lyrics and the guiding force behind INMATE’s ideology. Losing him is not just losing a bandmate but the very foundation of what made this journey so special.
Even after he moved with his family to Austria, his devotion to the band never wavered. Despite the distance, he showed up with joy and enthusiasm, whether for rehearsals, concerts, or tours. We deeply admired how he balanced his love for his family with his commitment to the band, and we cherished every opportunity to perform alongside him. His presence on this year’s European tour, particularly in Austria and Hungary, felt like a gift we now hold even closer to our hearts.
The memory of our final performance together on November 3rd in Schwäbisch Hall, Germany, is etched in us forever. Dropping him off at his home the next day, none of us imagined it would be our last goodbye.
Andrej was more than a bandmate; he was a steadying presence, a problem-solver, and above all, a true friend. His loyalty, discipline, unwavering principles, and calmness in resolving conflicts were qualities we admired deeply and will miss dearly. His confident presence on stage will never fade from our minds.
This is an unimaginable loss, one we will carry with us always. Andrej’s legacy is vast, and we are profoundly grateful for every moment we shared—in the rehearsal room, on stage, in the studio, and in our lives.
Though the road ahead will be difficult and forever changed, we know Andrej would want us to continue. His spirit will remain a part of INMATE, guiding us as we honor him through our music.
With broken hearts,
Marko, Jure V., David, Jure G.
WE ARE ETERNAL! WE ARE JUST TRAVELLING THROUGH THIS TIME AND SPACE.
