Emanuel Knorr
Emanuel Knorr is a professional musician, producer, and academic based in Bremen, Germany. His career took off at the age of 18 when he joined the nationally renowned metal band Majesty in 2015. With Majesty, Emanuel played hundreds of shows across Europe, including major festivals like Summer Breeze Open Air and Masters of Rock. He contributed to three studio albums with the band, all of which landed in the Top 40 of the official German album charts. In 2023, he parted ways with Majesty to focus on his own creative vision.
His current project Skytribe is a cinematic, female-fronted metal band centered around intricate guitar work and powerful storytelling. In winter 2024, their debut single Kingdom of the Sky was released—quickly gaining over 100,000 views and marking an impressive milestone for an emerging act.
As a session guitarist, Emanuel has played hundreds of shows across Europe and internationally. He has become particularly active in the Turkish pop scene, working with artists like Umut Timo and Apio—two of the country’s biggest pop stars with viral hits reaching hundreds of millions of streams.
Based out of his commercial studio in Bremen, Emanuel is deeply connected to the gear community. With endorsements from brands such as Ibanez Guitars, BluGuitar amps, and Klopmann Electrics pickups, he’s committed to using high-end gear that inspires both sonically and creatively. He also actively collaborates with his partners, producing high-quality content and social media assets for their platforms.
Alongside his career as a freelance artist, Emanuel is also involved in academic music education. He holds both Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees from the University of West London and works as a mentor with AMS Online, a partner institution of the university.
With RockBoard by Warwick, Emanuel proudly welcomes a new partner that brings his passion for analog gear to the modern stage.

Sandbox Pedal Board
"I love analog amps and pedals, but as a professional musician, it’s often difficult to bring that setup to the stage because digital rigs offer way more convenience. Thanks to RockBoard, I finally don’t have to choose. Their systems allow me to combine everything I love, the tone and the feel of my analog amps and pedals, with the flexibility and modern workflow of RockBoard’s innovative design. With features like simple patchbay routing, integrated wireless systems, smart power supply management, and built-in cab simulation, I can literally open my case, plug in my guitar, and play, no hassle. That’s a huge step forward for me, and I’m proud to represent such an exceptional product."
